Copperfit 1A1686 Abs Dwv 22-1/2 Degree Elbow 4 Inches

Product Description

The COPPERFIT 1A1686 is a 4-inch ABS DWV 22-1/2 degree elbow designed for drain, waste, and vent piping systems. Molded from acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) plastic, this fitting delivers a gradual directional change in horizontal or vertical drain runs where a sharper 45-degree or 90-degree sweep is not appropriate. At 4 inches, it fits standard DWV pipe sizing used in residential and light commercial plumbing. Licensed plumbers specify this elbow when routing drain lines around structural framing or transitioning flow direction with minimal turbulence. The fitting weighs 0.78 pounds.

This elbow is used in drain, waste, and vent piping applications requiring a 22-1/2 degree change in direction. Common install scenarios include below-slab horizontal drain runs, wall-routed waste lines, and stacked DWV assemblies where offset routing is needed. It is suited for residential construction and renovation work where ABS pipe is the material of choice. The 4-inch diameter accommodates high-volume drain loads typical of main drain stacks, floor drains, and branch drain lines.

Key Features

• 22-1/2 degree sweep angle for gradual directional changes in DWV runs
• 4-inch nominal diameter fits standard ABS DWV pipe
• ABS construction resists corrosion and chemical exposure common in drain environments
• Lightweight at 0.78 pounds for easy handling during overhead or confined-space installs
• Solvent-weld socket ends compatible with standard ABS solvent cement joining methods

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation fitting for 4-inch ABS DWV piping systems in residential and light commercial plumbing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off water supply and verify the drain line is clear before cutting into an existing system. Use ABS-rated solvent cement and primer where required by code; allow full cure time before restoring flow. Ensure proper slope and support spacing per code requirements for horizontal drain runs.
