4 inch ABS Cleanout Tee – Precision Access Fitting for Gravity Drainage Systems

The 4 inch ABS Cleanout Tee is a critical component in DWV (Drain, Waste, and Vent) installations, providing an accessible point for line inspection, snaking, and maintenance. Built for durability and code compliance, it supports the integrity of horizontal drainage layouts while streamlining access for service operations.

Manufactured from high-strength ABS thermoplastic, this fitting is engineered for stability and chemical resistance in non-pressurized piping environments. Designed to reduce system downtime, it meets the expectations of contractors who prioritize performance and regulatory compliance on every job.

Performance Attributes

• Impact-Resistant ABS Material – Maintains dimensional stability under thermal stress and mechanical load, minimizing deformation during handling or backfilling.
• Cleanout Integration – Built-in access port enables non-disruptive maintenance and auger access, supporting long-term line functionality.
• Third-Party Certified – Compliant with UPC, IPC, and other regional codes for above- and below-grade use in sanitary systems.
• System Versatility – Compatible with 4 inch ABS solvent-welded systems; suitable for new construction and retrofit installations across residential and commercial applications.

Installation Practices

This fitting is designed for solvent weld assembly in non-pressurized DWV systems. Ensure surfaces are clean and dry before applying primer and cement, per ASTM D2235 standards. The cleanout branch must remain accessible after wall or slab closure to maintain code compliance. Proper alignment is critical to ensure laminar flow and minimize turbulence.

Specification Summary

• Material: ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene)
• Nominal Size: 4 inch
• Connection Method: Solvent weld hub (female)
• Use: Non-pressurized drainage and vent systems
• Compliance: CSA B181.1, ASTM D2665, and relevant local codes

Applications

Primarily used in DWV branch lines where horizontal cleanout access is required. Ideal for floor-level or wall-accessible installations in residential basements, crawlspaces, and commercial sanitary risers.

Installation Insight

ABS offers high tensile strength and lighter handling properties compared to cast iron or PVC, which makes it a preferred material for large-diameter fittings in rapid deployment projects.
