Ipex 193206-1 Pvc Dwv Socket U Bend 6 Inch Sch 40

Product Description

The IPEX 193206-1 is a 6-inch Schedule 40 PVC DWV socket U bend designed for drain, waste, and vent piping systems. This fitting creates a 180-degree directional change in a drainage run, allowing flow to reverse direction within a confined space. It accepts socket connections on both ends, making it compatible with standard Schedule 40 PVC pipe and fittings joined with solvent cement. Licensed plumbers and pipe fitters install this fitting in residential and commercial DWV applications where a tight return is required.

This U bend is suited for drain and waste lines in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. Typical installations include under-fixture trap extensions, standpipe configurations, and drainage reroutes where space constraints prevent the use of multiple sweep elbows. The 6-inch size is common in larger-diameter drain lines, main building drains, and commercial waste stacks. The Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard pressure and drain service ratings for above-ground DWV use.

Key Features

• 6-inch nominal size with Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard DWV service
• Socket ends accept solvent-cement connections to Schedule 40 PVC pipe
• 180-degree U-bend geometry for direction reversal in tight spaces
• PVC construction resists corrosion and chemical attack from typical drain waste
• Designed for above-ground drain, waste, and vent piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fitting for 6-inch Schedule 40 PVC DWV drain, waste, and vent piping systems using solvent-cement socket connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code or applicable local code. Shut off water supply and verify the drain line is clear before cutting into an existing system. Clean and dry all mating surfaces before applying PVC primer and solvent cement per manufacturer instructions. Allow adequate cure time before restoring flow through the fitting.
