The Vinoleo range of products is split into three families which consist of traditional soaps, esters (Bio) and silicones.
This range of pipe jointing compounds provide a complete solution from large bore industrial pipes to small bore domestic pipes and fittings.
Product: Vinoleo SS is a WRAS approved silicone spray typically used on rain water goods and domestic drainage pipes.
Vinoleo SE is a low cost silicone emulsion typically used as a lubricant for connecting plastic pipes and joints.
Vinoleo SL is a silicone liquid solution which is applied to the seal prior to manufacture to improve the flow of the concrete to the seal lip thus reducing the potential for porosity and pitting during the casting of the concrete pipes.
Vinoleo SG is a WRAS approved silicone grease with excellent temperature stability for hot water environment such as showers, washing machines and pipe connections.
The following is a Vinoleo usage guide; however, it is our experience that each pipe manufacturer and contractor will require a certain characteristic from a lubricant for their pipe materials.
Whilst we offer full technical advice and support, only by testing various grades will you find the most practical product.

Vinoleo give major benefits to both manufacturers of pipe, pipe distributors and civils companies laying pipes.
Using Vinoleo lubricants means that failures of seals due to swelling and seal movement are completely eliminated.
Cracking of pipes due to excessive force being required to push joints together is no longer an issue as the lubricants available can deal with the most demanding applications.
Leaking pipes having to be re-laid due to the connections being incorrect or failing can be minimised just by using a lubricant that has been produced by a company that fully understands the demands of the Industry.
The Vinoleo range of products meets these demands.
* Packaging with YOUR name on it.
We provide the most comprehensive range of jointing compound materials available, plus a marketing service that offers packaging variations including Aerosols, Tubes, Tubs, and Bottles.
