4 Inch PVC Sewer and Drain Wye – Hub x Hub x Hub Configuration
This 4 inch PVC Wye fitting is designed to connect three branch lines in a 45-degree configuration, commonly used in gravity-flow sewer and stormwater drainage systems. With a Hub x Hub x Hub design, it allows for solvent-welded connections to standard 4 inch PVC piping for efficient line redirection and integration into sanitary and non-pressure drainage applications.
Key Attributes and Performance
✅ Material Composition – Manufactured from rigid polyvinyl chloride (PVC) conforming to ASTM D2729 for non-pressure drain, waste, and vent (DWV) applications.
✅ Hub Ends – Accepts 4 inch nominal PVC pipe for solvent-weld installation using approved primer and cement.
✅ Corrosion and Chemical Resistance – Resistant to a wide range of acids, alkalis, and other corrosive materials commonly found in wastewater systems.
✅ Lightweight and Durable – Easier handling on site with sufficient wall thickness to withstand underground installation and burial loads.
✅ Non-Pressure System Compatibility – Intended for use in gravity-fed systems only; not rated for pressurized service.
Installation Guidelines
This fitting is installed using solvent cementing methods. Surfaces should be cleaned and primed prior to applying solvent cement. Allow sufficient cure time before testing or backfilling. Ensure alignment of the wye branches during installation to maintain proper flow direction and code-compliant slopes.
Fitting should be inspected for defects prior to installation and installed per applicable local and national plumbing codes. Not suitable for pressurized potable water systems or gas applications.
Typical Applications
Branch line connections in horizontal drainage systems
Sanitary sewer laterals and vent piping networks
Stormwater diversion and non-potable drain lines
Standards and Compatibility
Compatible with SDR 35 and ASTM D2729 systems where 4 inch nominal PVC pipe is specified. Fitting dimensions and tolerances adhere to industry norms for DWV components, facilitating smooth integration into existing installations.
