3 inch Copper DWV Wye Copper x Copper x Copper

3" Copper DWV Wye – Built for High-Performance Drainage Systems

The 3" Copper DWV Wye is engineered to streamline waste flow in drain, waste, and vent applications. With a smooth 45-degree branch, this fitting enables the directional change of flow between horizontal piping runs, ensuring optimal efficiency in residential and light commercial systems.

Fabricated from high-grade copper, this DWV wye offers excellent corrosion resistance and is designed for longevity in systems that demand consistent performance. It supports soldered joints, providing a secure connection ideal for code-compliant copper DWV installations.

Advantages of the 3" Copper DWV Wye

• ✅ Standard DWV Geometry: Features a smooth radius for improved flow dynamics and reduced turbulence at the junction.
• ✅ Lead-Free Copper: Manufactured to comply with federal lead-free requirements under the Safe Drinking Water Act.
• ✅ Corrosion Resistant: Maintains structural integrity in high-moisture environments over time.
• ✅ Sweat Connection Ends: Designed for soldering to provide a permanent, pressure-tested seal.
• ✅ Compatible with DWV Systems: Suitable for horizontal and vertical waste line routing.
