Product Description

The CHARLOTTE PIPE FOUNDRY CO. PVC 00109 1400HA is a 3-inch Schedule 40 PVC DWV male pipe thread (MPT) adapter designed for drain, waste, and vent piping systems. This fitting transitions from a plain-end PVC hub to a male threaded connection, allowing integration with threaded fittings or threaded pipe ends in gravity-flow drainage applications. The Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard DWV pressure and flow requirements. Licensed plumbers install this adapter in residential and light commercial drain, waste, and vent systems where a threaded transition point is needed within a PVC pipeline.

This adapter is suited for 3-inch DWV installations in residential and commercial plumbing applications. It is used when connecting PVC pipe to a threaded fitting, fixture, or cleanout plug in a drain or vent line. The male pipe thread end conforms to standard NPT thread dimensions, making it compatible with standard threaded PVC and ABS DWV fittings. It is sold in a package quantity of 25 units, making it practical for contractors stocking materials for multi-unit or production plumbing work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off water supply and ensure the drain line is depressurized and empty before beginning work. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as PVC threads can crack under excessive torque.
