If you’re connecting a 5″ stove pipe to a 6″ flexible flue liner, the 5″ – 6″ Increasing Top Hat Adaptor is the right solution. It allows for a smooth, secure fit between the stove pipe and flue liner at the base of your chimney stack. This adaptor increases the diameter by 1″, bridging the gap between different sizes without fuss.
Crafted from 0.7mm stainless steel, it provides lasting durability and resistance to corrosion. Basically, this is an essential component for any solid fuel, gas, or oil appliance setup. The 5″ – 6″ Increasing Top Hat Adaptor features an integrated adjustable sleeve that moves up and down by up to 130mm, allowing for greater installation flexibility.
Besides offering strength and adaptability, this adaptor works with a wide range of fuels. You can use it with gas, oil, cured dry logs, cured dry peat, and smokeless fuels. That makes it suitable for many domestic or commercial flue systems.
Although many connectors limit your installation options, this product allows a confident and custom fit. The vertical adjustability proves helpful, especially when working in tight spaces or with uneven chimney entries. All things considered, it simplifies the connection between flue components while keeping your installation safe and compliant.
Installers can certainly appreciate how straightforward the setup is. Use self-tapping screws (not included) to secure the flue liner to the adaptor. Then seal the joint with high-temperature silicone or fire cement for a leak-free finish. Repeat the same process when attaching to the single wall stove pipe.
After all, ease of installation often determines project success. Comparatively, this adaptor reduces the effort and time usually required when adjusting for diameter changes in flue systems.
Undeniably, the strength and quality of stainless steel construction add long-term value. Its 0.7mm thickness ensures robustness and reliability, even under regular heating cycles. You don’t need to worry about rust, warping, or early wear — this connector stands up to frequent use.
The precision engineering also enhances safety. Properly joining the stove pipe and liner reduces the risk of smoke leakage or poor draught. In summary, this is a compact, adjustable flue adaptor that delivers in performance, flexibility, and durability.
This increasing top hat adaptor makes life easier for both professionals and DIYers. Whether you’re upgrading a stove or fitting a new chimney liner, it ensures a snug, clean fit. However, always confirm compatibility with your existing stove pipe and flue liner before installation.
Basically, it’s a small but vital part of a well-functioning chimney setup. And it does the job well — every time.
