1-1/4 inch Copper DWV 22-1/2° Elbow – For Precise Drainage Line Direction

The 1-1/4 inch Copper DWV 22-1/2 Degree Elbow is engineered for use in non-pressurized drainage, waste, and vent (DWV) systems. It provides a precise directional change of 22-1/2 degrees in horizontal or vertical piping runs, commonly employed where gradual transitions are preferred to maintain flow characteristics and minimize turbulence.

This fitting is manufactured from high-grade wrought copper and is designed for soldered connections in accordance with ASTM B75 and ASME/ANSI B16.29 standards. It is suitable for use in both residential and commercial installations where code-compliant DWV construction is required.

Product Advantages

• ✅ 22-1/2° Sweep – Ideal for reducing flow resistance in drainage layouts requiring moderate angular changes.
• ✅ Wrought Copper Construction – Corrosion-resistant and suitable for long-term performance in DWV systems.
• ✅ Precision Dimensions – Machined to tight tolerances to support proper slope alignment and soldering efficiency.
• ✅ Code Compliant – Meets applicable plumbing codes including UPC and IPC for use in DWV applications.

Specifications

• Material: Wrought Copper (ASTM B75)
• Size: 1-1/4 inch nominal pipe size
• Angle: 22-1/2 degrees
• Ends: Copper x Copper – solder joint
• Standard: ASME/ANSI B16.29
• Application: Drain, Waste, and Vent (DWV)

Installation Guidelines

Use with properly cleaned and fluxed copper tubing and lead-free solder. For horizontal drainage applications, ensure that fittings are aligned to maintain the required slope per code (typically 1/4 inch per foot). Heating should be performed evenly to avoid joint failure. This fitting is not intended for use in pressurized water systems.

Application Use Cases

Appropriate for use in sanitary drainage systems, vent lines, and waste piping in both new construction and renovation work. Commonly installed in confined framing conditions where a subtle offset is needed between runs of copper DWV piping.

Code Note

Lead-free copper fittings are required for all potable and non-potable water and drainage applications under federal Safe Drinking Water Act regulations and local plumbing codes.

The 1-1/4 inch Copper DWV 22-1/2 Degree Elbow offers professional-grade performance for installations requiring directional flow adjustments in DWV systems. Its reliable form and precision manufacture support long-lasting, code-compliant results on every job.
