Traditional LCC is socket-and-spigot cast iron soil and waste pipe made to BS 416, the system found on most Victorian and Edwardian buildings. It comes in 50mm, 65mm, 75mm, 90mm, 100mm and 150mm, with eared pipes that fix through cast lugs and plain pipes that take separate holderbats. The pipe is supplied in a bitumen coating. It is the like-for-like choice for repairing or replacing original stacks on listed buildings and in conservation areas. The range covers pipes in four lengths, bends, branches, offsets, access and bossed pipes, traps, holderbats and ornamental earbands. To join new pipe to an existing LCC stack without rebuilding it, see the conversion couplings in Tuscan Mechanical BS416 Soil.

Eared pipes have cast lugs on the socket and are fixed to the wall through the ears. Plain pipes have no lugs and are fixed with separate holderbats. Match whichever your existing stack uses.
Traditionally the joint was packed with yarn and caulked with molten lead. As an alternative without a naked flame, the spigot is packed with caulking cord and the joint finished with a black sealant. Both are available in the range.
No. LCC is supplied bitumen coated only. If the stack must be painted, use a primer suitable for bitumen before the top coat. Traditional Express TX, supplied in black gloss, is easier to paint.

As an alternative method of jointing, without the use of a naked flame as in the traditional lead caulking method, we can provide the following cold jointing products:
• Caulking Cord
• CT1 black sealant
Step 1.
Centrally align the pipe spigot within the socket and wet the cord.
Step 2.
Caulk this into the socket up to 30mm from the top. This will centralise the pipes and provide a backing for the top 30mm of the joint.
Step 3.
Fill the top 30mm with CT1 black sealant, apply using a skeleton gun.
Step 4.
When filled, smooth off level with the top of the socket, to provide a sealed joint and neat appearance. No further painting will be required if the pipes are black.
CT1 can be over painted if the pipes are a different colour.
Note: Each joint of a 4” pipe will require approximately 4 metres of caulking cord and a quarter of a tube of CT1.
Estimate usage on smaller or larger diameters pro-rata to pipe diameter.
A typical fixing for eared soil pipes is 100mm large head pipenail, coach screws or other proprietary fixing.
Fixing of uneared soil pipe is by a drive-in holdfast.
Alternatively holderbats or ornamental earbands may be used for a more decorative effect. All fixings are available from stock.
