6 inch PVC Sewer and Drain 90 Degree Short Turn Elbow Hub x Hub

6 Inch PVC Sewer and Drain 90° Short Turn Elbow – Hub x Hub

The 6 inch PVC 90-degree short turn elbow is engineered for use in non-pressurized gravity flow sewer and storm drainage systems. Featuring solvent-weld hub connections on both ends, this fitting is designed to change the direction of flow in horizontal or vertical piping layouts with a tighter radius than standard long sweep fittings.

Material and Compliance Details

• ✅ Material: PVC (polyvinyl chloride) conforming to ASTM D3034 and D1784, Cell Classification 12454-B
• ✅ Connection Type: Hub x Hub (solvent weld) designed for use with SDR 35 sewer and drain pipe
• ✅ Angle: 90 degrees – short turn for compact directional changes within code-approved applications
• ✅ System Use: Non-pressure, gravity-flow sewer and storm drainage systems
• ✅ Certifications: Meets ASTM D3034, complies with applicable sections of the IPC and UPC

Installation Guidelines

This fitting should be installed using appropriate primer and solvent cement per ASTM D2855 for PVC solvent weld systems. Ensure that the pipe is fully inserted into the hub socket and held until initial set is achieved. Proper surface preparation and clean, dry fit-up are essential to ensure long-term sealing integrity. Not intended for use in pressurized systems or potable water distribution.

Application Scenarios

Used in sanitary sewer laterals, building drainage systems, stormwater management, and underground site utilities. The short turn radius allows for directional transitions in confined areas such as mechanical vaults, manholes, and utility chases where long sweep fittings may not be feasible.

Product Highlights

• ✅ Compact Radius – Shorter turning radius than a long sweep for installations with dimensional constraints
• ✅ High Flow Efficiency – Designed to maintain adequate flow velocity while complying with slope and layout requirements
• ✅ Corrosion Resistant – Will not rust or scale; compatible with standard SDR 35 pipe systems
• ✅ Solvent Weld Compatibility – Joins directly to other SDR 35 fittings and pipe using industry-standard solvent cement

Technical Summary
