3 inch ABS DWV Sanitary Tee – Engineered for Code-Compliant Drainage Systems

The 3 inch ABS DWV Sanitary Tee is a critical component in non-pressurized drain, waste, and vent systems. It is designed to connect a horizontal branch line to a vertical drain line while maintaining proper directional flow. With its smooth internal walls and consistent dimensions, this tee supports efficient waste removal and venting without disrupting flow characteristics.

Manufactured from high-impact ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene), this fitting offers excellent durability and long-term performance. It is commonly used in residential, commercial, and industrial DWV systems where lightweight, corrosion-resistant materials are required.

Product Specifications

• Remodels or new construction where branch line routing is required

Installation Guidance

Use only with approved ABS solvent cement. Clean and dry mating surfaces before joining. Maintain proper grade and alignment in accordance with UPC or IPC standards. This fitting is intended for gravity flow systems and should not be used in pressurized applications.

Did You Know?

Sanitary tees are distinct from vent tees—they are specifically designed to direct flow downward with a smooth sweep, which is crucial for maintaining laminar flow and preventing clogging in drainage systems.

The 3 inch ABS DWV Sanitary Tee is built for long-term performance in code-regulated DWV installations. Its rugged construction, code-conforming shape, and ease of installation make it a staple for professionals who demand reliability in every connection.
