Technical Information

This 3″ PVC DWV 90° Elbow is engineered for drain, waste, and vent applications where a 90-degree change in direction is required. The long sweep radius design facilitates smooth flow with reduced turbulence compared to standard elbows. Key features include:

• Long-radius sweep design minimizes flow restriction and prevents waste buildup
• Socket connections at both ends for secure solvent welding to DWV piping
• Thick wall construction provides excellent durability and sound dampening
• Smooth interior surface reduces friction and improves flow characteristics
• Designed specifically for gravity flow waste systems

Applications

• Vertical to horizontal transitions in drainage stacks
• Building drain systems
• Sewer connections
• Vent piping systems
• Commercial plumbing installations
• Underground drainage
• Industrial waste systems

Installation Guidelines

• For socket connections, use appropriate PVC primer and cement
• Ensure proper slope for drainage applications (minimum 1/4″ per foot for horizontal runs)
• Support within 12″ of the fitting on both sides
• Allow for proper alignment before cementing
• Use appropriate hanging systems for elevated installations
• Allow 24 hours curing time before testing system
• Verify compliance with local plumbing codes

Compliance Information

• Complies with major plumbing codes (UPC, IPC)
• Manufactured according to ASTM D2665 standards for PVC DWV pipe and fittings
• NSF certified for drain, waste, and vent applications
