2 inch Copper DWV Wye Fitting – For Branch Line Integration in Drainage Systems

The 2 inch Copper Wye fitting is engineered for use in copper Drain, Waste, and Vent (DWV) systems where branch connections are required. It allows for a smooth directional change while maintaining flow efficiency and system integrity.

Fabricated from high-grade copper, this wye fitting offers corrosion resistance and long-term durability in both residential and light commercial DWV applications. It is designed to be joined using soldered connections, forming a rigid, leak-resistant system that complies with applicable plumbing codes.

Product Features

• Material: Copper – Type DWV grade, suitable for non-pressurized drainage and venting lines.
• Configuration: Standard wye pattern for introducing a branch line into a main horizontal drain line.
• Size: 2 inch main run x 2 inch branch (nominal copper tube size).
• Connection: Cup (female solder) ends for all three ports – compatible with ASTM B75/B306 tubing.
• Code Compliance: Conforms to ASME/ANSI B16.29 and applicable sections of the UPC and IPC for DWV systems.

Installation Guidelines

To install, the pipe and fitting should be properly cleaned and fluxed prior to soldering. Use lead-free solder in compliance with federal and local codes. Allow sufficient slope in horizontal runs per code to facilitate gravity drainage.

Common Applications

This copper wye is typically used in DWV systems to tie a fixture drain into a horizontal main. It is suitable for use in wall cavities, ceiling assemblies, or crawl spaces where copper DWV systems are specified.

Additional Notes

Ensure pipe sizing is consistent with the fixture unit demand and pipe slope requirements to avoid flow restrictions. Use in conjunction with copper long-turn 1/8 bends for directional changes if required by layout.
