Charlotte Pipe Foundry Pvc 00324 1000HA 3 in Dwv Elbow Sch 40

Product Description

The Charlotte Pipe Foundry Co. PVC 00324 1000HA is a 3-inch Schedule 40 PVC DWV elbow with a 22.5-degree bend angle. It is used in drain, waste, and vent piping systems where a shallow directional change is needed without the abrupt redirect of a 45- or 90-degree fitting. The Schedule 40 wall thickness provides the structural rigidity required in residential and light commercial DWV rough-in work. Plumbers install this fitting during new construction and remodel projects where code-compliant drain slope and venting geometry must be maintained across longer horizontal runs.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial drain, waste, and vent applications. The 22.5-degree angle is commonly used to offset piping around structural obstructions or to achieve gradual directional transitions in horizontal drain lines. It is installed as part of solvent-welded PVC DWV systems in above-slab and below-slab configurations where a low-angle sweep fitting meets local plumbing code requirements.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or applicable local plumbing codes. Shut off water supply and ensure the drain system is depressurized and dry before cutting into existing lines. Clean and prime pipe ends per solvent-cement manufacturer instructions before applying cement and seating the fitting with a quarter-turn. Do not use this fitting for pressure piping applications.
