6 inch PVC DWV 90 Degree Elbow Plastic x Plastic

6 inch PVC DWV 90-Degree Elbow – Designed for Code-Compliant Drainage Systems

The 6 inch PVC DWV 90-Degree Elbow is built for use in drain, waste, and vent systems requiring a directional change in flow. Fabricated from durable polyvinyl chloride, this fitting provides a secure hub-to-hub connection that ensures smooth interior transitions and maintains hydraulic efficiency.

Professional-Grade Attributes

• ✅ Hub End Connections – Designed to connect to schedule 40 DWV pipe for solvent weld assemblies.
• ✅ 90-Degree Sweep Radius – Supports proper venting and waste flow consistent with plumbing codes.
• ✅ Corrosion-Resistant PVC – Immune to rust, chemical attack, and interior scale buildup common in metal systems.
• ✅ Non-Conductive and Flame Resistant – Offers safe use in non-pressurized residential and commercial systems.
• ✅ Meets ASTM D2665 and D3311 Standards – Verified for code-approved DWV applications.

Technical Specifications

• Material: Schedule 40 PVC
• Nominal Size: 6 inches
• Connection Type: Hub x Hub
• Angle: 90 Degrees
• Applicable Standards: ASTM D2665, D3311, and NSF compliant for DWV

Use Cases

Commonly installed in horizontal or vertical drainage lines, this fitting redirects wastewater flow in residential, commercial, and institutional buildings. It is frequently used at the base of stacks, long runs of horizontal pipe, or where changes in direction are required for venting alignment.

Installation Notes

This elbow must be solvent-cemented using an approved PVC primer and cement. Proper surface preparation and full pipe insertion depth are essential for code-compliant bonding and long-term integrity. Installers should verify slope and alignment to avoid hydraulic inefficiencies or inspection failures.

Code Considerations

Per IPC and UPC guidelines, 90-degree elbows are limited in certain configurations—such as for cleanouts or vent terminations—and should be used in accordance with local amendments and project-specific engineering requirements.
