Tuscan EN877 Soil is a socketless cast iron soil, waste and rainwater system made to BS EN 877. Plain-ended pipes and fittings are joined with stainless steel or ductile iron couplings, giving a slim, continuous line on a façade or in a service riser. Cast iron is non-combustible, quiet in use and very long-lived. That is why it remains the specification of choice for heritage buildings, tall stacks, and anywhere acoustic performance or fire safety matters.
An 88° single branch with a smaller inlet than the main run, for example 100mm × 50mm. It brings a smaller pipe into the stack or drain without a separate taper.
Available in 4 sizes, from 70mm × 50mm to 150mm × 100mm. Nominal weights run from 1.5 kg (70mm × 50mm) to 5.1 kg (150mm × 100mm).
Typical use: Waste and branch connections into a larger stack or drain.

| 100mm × 50mm | HS4020 | 2.2 kg |
| 100mm × 70mm | HS4021 | 2.5 kg |

It is available in 70mm × 50mm (HS3020), 100mm × 50mm (HS4020), 100mm × 70mm (HS4021), 150mm × 100mm (HS6020).
The first figure is the main run and the second is the branch. A 100mm × 50mm branch fits a 100mm stack and takes a 50mm branch pipe.
The 88° branch is the standard choice for bringing a horizontal branch pipe into a vertical stack. The branch pipe is laid to a slight fall, so the junction sits just short of a right angle.
