1-1/2 inch ABS DWV Cleanout Tee – Purpose-Built for Accessible Maintenance and Code Compliance

The 1-1/2 inch ABS Cleanout Tee is a critical component in drainage, waste, and vent (DWV) systems, designed to provide convenient access for rodding or inspection. Manufactured from tough, non-corrosive ABS thermoplastic, this solvent-weld fitting offers long-term performance and durability in both new construction and retrofit applications.

Key Features

• Material: Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) – impact-resistant and chemically resistant
• Configuration: Sanitary tee with integrated cleanout port and threaded access
• Connection Type: Hub x Hub x Hub with Female Threaded Cleanout
• Standards: Manufactured to ASTM D2661 specifications for DWV fittings
• Nominal Size: 1-1/2 inches

Professional Benefits

• Maintenance Access: Provides a threaded port for drain line access, essential for meeting plumbing code in concealed or hard-to-reach areas
• Durability: Formulated to maintain dimensional integrity and strength across a range of temperatures and operating conditions
• Efficient Workflow: Speeds up rough-in and final installations, especially in wall or floor assemblies requiring cleanout access
• Versatility: Suitable for use in both horizontal and vertical DWV lines in residential and light commercial settings

Installation Guidance

Install using ASTM D2235-compliant solvent cement for ABS systems. Ensure surfaces are dry and properly chamfered before assembly. Torque the threaded cleanout plug to manufacturer guidelines to avoid over-tightening or damage. Do not use with compressed air or gas systems.

Application Scenarios

Most commonly found at the base of vertical stacks or in long horizontal waste lines, the 1-1/2 inch ABS Cleanout Tee facilitates quick drain access without dismantling pipe sections. It supports both initial inspections and future maintenance, helping meet local plumbing code for cleanout spacing and accessibility.

Did You Know?

Many jurisdictions require accessible cleanouts at intervals not exceeding 100 feet in horizontal drainage piping. Installing this tee ensures compliance while simplifying long-term upkeep.

Summary

The 1-1/2 inch ABS DWV Cleanout Tee delivers accessible, code-compliant cleanout access without compromising structural integrity. Its compact form and robust construction make it an essential choice for reliable maintenance points in DWV systems.
