2 inch ABS DWV Adapter Plastic x Male

2 inch ABS DWV Adapter – Engineered for Drain, Waste, and Vent Applications

The 2 inch ABS DWV Adapter is designed to provide a dependable connection between dissimilar piping components within non-pressurized plumbing systems. Manufactured from high-strength ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene), this adapter offers durability and chemical resistance, making it suitable for residential and light commercial DWV (Drain, Waste, and Vent) installations.

Product Features

• Thermoplastic Construction: Injection-molded ABS material provides rigidity and dimensional stability.
• 2 inch Nominal Size: Compatible with standard Schedule 40 DWV pipe systems.
• Male Spigot End: Fits directly into a hub or socket fitting for solvent-welded connections.
• High Impact Resistance: Withstands jobsite handling and temperature fluctuations without cracking.
• Uniform Wall Thickness: Promotes consistent solvent welding and minimizes stress points.

Standards and Compliance

• Manufactured in accordance with ASTM D2661 specifications.
• Certified to meet or exceed UPC and IPC requirements for DWV fittings.
• NSF-listed for waste system use.
• Lead-free as defined by federal and state plumbing codes.

Installation Notes

Installation of ABS DWV adapters requires proper pipe surface preparation using approved primer and solvent cement. Ensure the mating pipe end is chamfered and free of debris prior to solvent application. Solvent welding should be completed in compliance with ASTM D2855 procedures for joining plastic pipe and fittings.

Typical Applications

This fitting is commonly used to transition ABS piping to other fittings or fixtures within DWV systems. Ideal for vent offsets, horizontal waste line modifications, or repairs requiring reduction or directional changes in pipe runs.

Material Insight

ABS is a non-metallic thermoplastic known for its high strength-to-weight ratio, impact resistance, and thermal stability, making it an ideal choice for above-ground DWV installations where corrosion resistance and ease of handling are critical.
