Abi Foundry 616 Cast Iron No Hub 1/8 Bend 8 Inch

Product Description

The ABI FOUNDRY 616 is a cast iron no-hub 1/8 bend fitting designed for drain, waste, and vent (DWV) piping systems. The 1/8 bend provides a 45-degree directional change in the pipe run, making it a standard component for routing waste lines around obstacles or transitioning flow direction within a stack or horizontal branch. With an 8-inch nominal size and no-hub end style, this fitting accepts no-hub couplings and neoprene gaskets for a secure, tool-joined connection. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in both new construction and retrofit applications.

This fitting is suited for 8-inch DWV installations in commercial and industrial plumbing systems where cast iron pipe is specified for its durability, sound dampening, and fire-resistance characteristics. Typical applications include main building drains, large-diameter soil stacks, and below-grade waste lines in multi-story or high-occupancy structures. The no-hub end style is compatible with standard no-hub band couplings per CISPI and ASTM specifications.

Key Features

• Cast iron construction for long service life in demanding DWV environments
• 1/8 bend geometry provides a 45-degree directional change in the pipe run
• 8-inch nominal size suitable for large-diameter commercial and industrial drain lines
• No-hub end style accepts standard no-hub stainless steel band couplings
• Compatible with CISPI and ASTM no-hub joint assembly methods

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style cast iron no-hub DWV fitting for use with 8-inch no-hub cast iron pipe and standard no-hub couplings in commercial and industrial drain, waste, and vent systems.

Installation Notes

Installation of no-hub cast iron fittings is performed by licensed plumbers in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off and drain the affected portion of the system before cutting into an existing line. No-hub couplings are torqued using a torque wrench per the coupling manufacturer's specifications, not the values of this fitting alone. Inspect the gasket seating surface on the pipe ends before assembly to ensure a leak-free joint.
