1-1/2 inch PVC DWV 90° Long-Turn Elbow – Optimized for Directional Drainage

The 1-1/2 inch PVC DWV 90° Long-Turn Elbow is engineered for directing flow in drain, waste, and vent (DWV) piping systems with reduced turbulence and improved flow characteristics. Its long-turn radius offers a smoother transition for liquids and air, making it especially suitable for horizontal-to-vertical directional changes where standard elbows may cause flow disruption or clogging.

Manufactured from durable polyvinyl chloride (PVC), this elbow conforms to industry specifications for gravity-fed DWV applications. It meets ASTM D2665 and is third-party certified for UPC compliance, providing contractors with confidence in performance and code alignment.

Advantages of Using Long-Turn DWV Elbows

• ✅ Extended Sweep Radius – Reduces velocity loss and internal pressure drops, minimizing clog potential at directional changes.
• ✅ Non-Corrosive Construction – Ideal for vent and drainage lines where chemical resistance and moisture tolerance are critical.
• ✅ Code-Compliant Design – Fabricated to meet or exceed requirements of ASTM D2665 and CSA B181.2 for DWV fittings.
• ✅ Lightweight and Easy to Handle – Simplifies overhead or in-wall installations where accessibility is limited.
• ✅ Solvent Weld Socket Ends – Ensures secure, leak-resistant bonding with compatible 1-1/2 inch DWV piping.

Applications

Used in non-pressurized DWV systems for residential and commercial buildings, this fitting supports directional changes in branch lines, fixture arms, and vent stacks. Its long-turn configuration is preferred in layouts where hydraulic performance and blockage resistance are critical—especially in vertical-to-horizontal transitions below grade or in concealed locations.

Did You Know?

DWV long-turn fittings reduce the risk of flow-induced noise and hydraulic shock, making them ideal for high-efficiency and multi-story drainage systems.
