Abi Foundry 838 Sanitary Tee 6x3 in No Hub Cast Iron

Product Description

The ABI FOUNDRY 838 is a cast iron no-hub sanitary tee fitting designed for drain, waste, and vent (DWV) piping systems. With a 6 x 3 inch nominal size and a 9.125-inch body length, this tee provides a branch connection off a main 6-inch line to a 3-inch lateral. The no-hub end style accepts standard no-hub couplings for fast, tool-assisted assembly without lead or oakum. Cast iron construction delivers the durability and sound-dampening characteristics required in commercial and multi-family residential drain systems.

This fitting is used in above-grade and below-grade DWV piping installations where a 3-inch branch must tie into a 6-inch main stack or horizontal run. Typical applications include commercial restroom groups, floor drain tie-ins, and main stack connections in multi-story buildings. The no-hub configuration suits both new construction and retrofit work where hub-and-spigot fittings are not practical. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of a code-compliant sanitary drain system.

Key Features

• 6 x 3 inch nominal size for main-to-branch DWV connections
• No-hub end style accepts standard stainless no-hub couplings
• 9.125-inch overall length suits tight-clearance stack installations
• Cast iron construction provides impact resistance and noise attenuation
• Sanitary tee configuration maintains proper flow direction in drain systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style no-hub cast iron replacement fitting for 6 x 3 inch sanitary tee applications in residential and commercial DWV piping systems using standard no-hub coupling connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local amendments. Shut off water supply and confirm the system is depressurized and drained before cutting into an existing line. No-hub couplings require a torque wrench set to the coupling manufacturer specification — do not overtighten or undertighten the clamp bands. Support horizontal runs per code-required hanger spacing for cast iron pipe.
