Charlotte Pipe PVC-601-4X4X2 Pvc Dwv Reducing Wye

Product Description

The CHARLOTTE PIPE PVC-601-4X4X2 is a reducing wye fitting designed for drain, waste, and vent (DWV) piping systems. It provides a 2-inch branch outlet on a 4-inch by 4-inch run, allowing smaller branch lines to tie into a main 4-inch drain stack. This fitting is rated for non-pressure, gravity-fed waste elimination systems only and is not suitable for pressurized water supply lines. Operating temperatures must not exceed 140 degrees F. Plumbers and pipefitters select this fitting for residential and light commercial DWV rough-in work where a reduced branch connection is required.

This reducing wye is suited for residential and commercial drain, waste, and vent installations where a 2-inch branch line must connect to a 4-inch main line. Typical applications include tying lavatory, utility sink, or secondary fixture drains into a primary 4-inch drain stack or horizontal drain run. The fitting is joined using solvent cement, and its lightweight PVC construction simplifies handling and positioning during rough-in stages. It is manufactured in the USA by Charlotte Pipe.
