Charlotte Pipe Pvc 00601 1400HA Dwv Sch 40 Reducing Wye

Product Description

The Charlotte Pipe Foundry Co. PVC 00601 1400HA is a Schedule 40 PVC reducing wye fitting designed for drain, waste, and vent (DWV) systems. It provides a 45-degree branch connection that allows a 2-inch line to tie into a 3-inch main run while maintaining proper drainage slope and flow characteristics. Made from rigid PVC, it is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and well suited to the demands of residential and commercial plumbing rough-in work. Licensed plumbers typically select this fitting when reducing branch lines in gravity-drain configurations inside walls, floors, or ceiling chases.

This reducing wye is used in Schedule 40 PVC DWV piping systems for sanitary drain, waste, and vent applications. It is appropriate for residential construction, multi-family housing, and light commercial plumbing where a 2-inch branch must connect to a 3-inch horizontal or vertical drain line. The fitting conforms to standard DWV installation practices and is sold in packages of 25 units, making it practical for contractors stocking job-site materials.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 PVC construction for standard DWV pressure and flow ratings
• 3-inch x 3-inch x 2-inch reducing configuration handles common branch reduction in drain lines
• Wye geometry promotes smooth, low-turbulence flow and reduces clog risk compared to tee fittings
• Corrosion-resistant PVC material suitable for sanitary waste and vent service
• Sold in a package quantity of 25 units for contractor-level procurement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation fitting for Schedule 40 PVC DWV piping systems using standard 3-inch and 2-inch pipe outside diameters.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or applicable local code. Solvent-cement all joints using a PVC primer and Schedule 40-rated PVC cement; allow full cure time before pressure-testing the system. Ensure proper drainage slope on horizontal runs as required by code before securing the fitting in place. Do not use this fitting for pressure piping, potable water supply lines, or any application outside its DWV rating.
