3 inch PVC DWV 90 Degree Street Elbow Fitting x Plastic

3 inch PVC DWV 90° Street Elbow – Short-Turn Transition Fitting for Drainage Systems

The 3 inch PVC DWV 90° Street Elbow is a solvent-weld fitting used to create a right-angle change in direction in drain, waste, and vent (DWV) systems. Its street-end configuration—one spigot end and one socket end—allows direct insertion into another hub fitting without the need for an additional straight pipe segment.

Constructed from Schedule 40 PVC, this elbow meets dimensional tolerances and performance criteria for gravity-fed sanitary systems in both residential and commercial applications. It is especially useful in compact areas or layout transitions where space constraints demand a tight radius bend while maintaining system alignment and flow integrity.

• ✅ Spigot x Socket Connection – Allows hub-to-hub transition without intermediate pipe section; reduces fitting count.
• ✅ Schedule 40 PVC – Provides high chemical resistance and durability in non-pressurized systems.
• ✅ Standard 90° Bend – Supports directional changes while maintaining code-compliant slope and flow path.

Technical Specifications

• Material: PVC, Schedule 40
• Nominal Size: 3 inches
• Connection Type: Spigot x Socket (Street Elbow)
• Angle: 90 degrees
• Conformance: ASTM D2665 and D3311 for DWV fittings

Install using standard solvent welding techniques. Ensure that all joining surfaces are clean and free of debris before applying primer and cement. Proper joint assembly and curing are critical to maintaining long-term performance and leak-free operation in DWV systems.

Applications

Used in sanitary drainage systems for branch offsets, vent connections, and stack transitions. Particularly suitable for installations where directional change and tight tolerances intersect—such as wall cavities, floor transitions, or manifold assemblies.

Material Characteristics

Schedule 40 PVC fittings are lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and chemically compatible with a wide range of residential and commercial waste materials. The smooth interior minimizes flow resistance and reduces accumulation of solids.

The 3 inch PVC DWV 90° Street Elbow is an essential fitting for directional changes in sanitary piping systems where spigot-to-socket transitions improve efficiency and alignment. Its compact profile and compliance with applicable standards make it a preferred choice for code-compliant installations.
