Copperfit 1A1828 Abs Dwv 45 Degree Wye 4 Inches

Product Description

The COPPERFIT 1A1828 is a 4-inch ABS DWV 45-degree wye fitting used in drain, waste, and vent piping systems. Made from acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) plastic, this fitting allows a branch line to enter a main drain line at a 45-degree angle, supporting proper drainage flow and reducing the risk of blockage. At 2.25 pounds, it is lightweight and easy to handle during installation. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in residential and light commercial DWV systems where a smooth directional transition is needed between pipes.

This fitting is suited for new construction and retrofit DWV applications where a 4-inch branch connection is required. It is commonly used in drain stacks, horizontal branch drains, and vent configurations that call for a 45-degree offset rather than a straight tee. The 45-degree angle promotes better flow compared to a 90-degree connection and is preferred in many plumbing code-compliant drain layouts.

Key Features

• 4-inch ABS construction for use in drain, waste, and vent systems
• 45-degree wye angle supports smooth wastewater flow and reduces turbulence
• Lightweight ABS material simplifies handling and positioning during rough-in work
• Compatible with standard ABS solvent-weld joining methods
• Suitable for both new construction and retrofit DWV installations

Compatibility

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

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or applicable local plumbing codes. Before beginning work, shut off water supply and ensure the drain system is not under pressure or active flow. ABS fittings are joined using ABS solvent cement — clean and dry all mating surfaces before applying cement, and allow adequate cure time before restoring service. Do not use PVC solvent cement in place of ABS-rated cement.
