92.5° solvent weld fitting?

Such as this one.

Why aren't they 90° ?

They’re more of a sweeping bend and less frictional resistance with less chance of blockages. Did you want 90 degree like this one https://www.toolstation.com/solvent-weld-bend-900/p47028 or just asking?

Makes sense I suppose to have a less sharp bend for easier unblocking. thanks!

The Toolstation 90 you quote, according to this fella, is used where space is tight but more prone to blockage and more difficult to push a snake wire through.

They are swept to avoid turbulence, avoids being a choke point and makes it easier to snake, they also allow you to keep the fall on the pipe after the bend without having to stress the joint. Same as a 92.5deg 110mm branch, keeps the fall on the soil pipe run.

Understood, thanks.
