PVC DWV 45° Elbow 1″

Technical Information

This 1″ PVC DWV 45° Elbow is designed for drain, waste, and vent applications where a moderate 45-degree change in direction is required. The 45° angle allows for smoother flow transitions than 90° elbows, reducing the risk of clogging in waste systems. Key features include:

• Long sweep radius optimizes flow characteristics
• Gradual direction change minimizes pressure loss in gravity systems
• 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 prevents waste buildup
• 45° angle allows for easier passage of cleaning equipment than 90° elbows

Applications

• Building drainage systems
• Sewage lines requiring moderate directional changes
• Vent stacks and offsets
• Industrial drain systems
• Commercial plumbing installations
• Residential waste lines
• Underground drainage with proper bedding

Installation Guidelines

• For socket connections, use appropriate PVC primer and cement
• Ensure proper slope for drainage applications (minimum 1/4″ per foot)
• 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
• Install in accessible locations when used as cleanout access points

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
