Charlotte Pipe Apa 17112 0600HC Abs Dwv Pipe 1-1/2x10 Sch 40

Product Description

The CHARLOTTE PIPE FOUNDRY CO. APA 17112 0600HC is a 1-1/2 inch diameter, 10-foot length ABS Schedule 40 foam core pipe rated for drain, waste, and vent (DWV) service in non-pressure applications. The foam core construction reduces weight compared to solid-wall pipe while maintaining the structural integrity required for Schedule 40 service. Plain ends allow connection via standard ABS solvent-cement fittings. This pipe meets ASTM F-1488 and NSF Standard 14, making it suitable for residential and light commercial drain and vent systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers for this product.

This pipe is designed for DWV installations in residential and light commercial construction, including drain lines, waste stacks, and vent piping within walls, floors, and ceilings. The 1-1/2 inch size is commonly used for lavatory drains, kitchen sink drains, and vent branch lines. Sold in packages of 5 lengths, this pipe suits new construction rough-in and remodel work where ABS DWV systems are specified or locally approved by code. It is not rated for pressure applications or potable water supply.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the applicable plumbing code, such as the IPC or UPC, and any local amendments governing ABS DWV piping. Before cutting into an existing system, isolate the drain line and ensure the work area is clear of wastewater flow. Cut pipe to length with a fine-tooth saw or ratchet pipe cutter, deburr cut ends, and join using ABS-rated solvent cement applied per the cement manufacturer's instructions. ABS pipe must not be used for pressure water supply lines or in applications exceeding the temperature and pressure limits defined by ASTM F-1488.
