Advanced Drainage Systems 3540010 Drainage Tube 3x10

Product Description

The ADVANCED DRAINAGE SYSTEMS 3540010 is a solid corrugated polyethylene drainage tube measuring 3 inches in diameter and 10 feet in length, with a bell end for simplified field connections. Designed for subsurface drainage applications, this tube manages water flow away from structures, roadways, and landscapes without the open perforations found in drain tile. The corrugated profile provides flexibility and crush resistance for burial installation. It is handled and installed by plumbing contractors, site utility crews, and landscape drainage professionals.

This solid drainage tube suits residential and light commercial applications where water must be conveyed rather than absorbed into surrounding soil. Common install scenarios include downspout extensions, sump pump discharge lines, yard drain outlets, and culvert connections. The bell end on one side allows direct coupling to the next tube section or to compatible fittings without a separate coupler, reducing the number of components needed on the job site.

Key Features

• Solid wall construction prevents infiltration and directs flow to a controlled discharge point
• Corrugated polyethylene profile offers flexibility for routing around obstacles in the field
• Bell end allows direct tube-to-tube or tube-to-fitting connection
• Lightweight construction simplifies handling and trench installation
• Sold in a package of 10 tubes per unit of measure

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment for 3-inch corrugated polyethylene drainage systems using bell-end connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by plumbing or site utility contractors following applicable local drainage and grading codes. Ensure the trench is graded to the required slope before laying tube to maintain positive drainage flow. Avoid sharp bends beyond the tube's rated flexibility to prevent kinking or flow restriction. Backfill with appropriate material per local code and compact carefully to support the tube without crushing the corrugated profile.
