Struggling to figure out the right adaptor for your waste pipe setup? You’re not alone. UK camper reviews and forums often ask: “What adaptor fits my caravan outlet?” or “Is wild camping legal in the UK?”. While wild camping isn’t what we’re covering today, we’ve got you covered when it comes to knowing exactly which Colapz adaptor suits your vehicle.
Quick Summary: Select the Right Adaptor
-
Caravans:
-
Single outlet = No adaptor needed
-
Double outlet = Colapz Double Adaptor
-
-
Campervans & Motorhomes:
-
Single outlet = Colapz Single Adaptor
-
Tap-style outlet = Funnel (Tap) Adaptor
-
Caravans: Simple & Effective
Single Waste Outlet:
If your caravan has just one waste pipe outlet, you're in luck—no adaptor needed! Just connect our flexible waste pipes directly and you're good to go.
Double Waste Outlet:
Many modern caravans come with twin outlets. For this, you’ll need the Colapz Double Adaptor, which neatly links both outlets into one waste pipe. Made from a rubberised, watertight material, it's easy to fit and seals securely.
Campervans & Motorhomes: Know Your Outlet
Standard Direct Outlet:
Most campervans and motorhomes feature a single outlet similar in diameter to the Colapz pipes. For this, use the versatile Colapz Single Adaptor, compatible with 17–50 mm outlets and easy to trim to size .
Tap-Style Outlet:
Some vehicles have an exterior water tap instead of a pipe socket. No worries—you’ll need the Funnel Adaptor (also known as the Tap Funnel), which fits over the tap and connects cleanly to the flexible pipe.
Why Colapz Adaptors & Flexi Pipes Stand Out

Easy to install & adjust—cut to length, secure, done

Compact and storable, perfect for space-conscious UK vehicles
How to Check What You Need:

Inspect your vehicle’s outlet – Single, double, or tap?

Check the existing diameter and decide which adaptor fits

Choose your pipe bundle & add the correct adaptor, ensuring a perfect, leak-free setup
