Mueller Streamline PDWVBEND1163 Pvc Dwv 1/16 Bend

Product Description

The MUELLER STREAMLINE PDWVBEND1163 is a 3-inch PVC DWV 1/16 bend fitting with a hub-by-hub (HxH) connection configuration. This drain, waste, and vent fitting provides a 22.5-degree change of direction in gravity-flow drainage piping systems. It is manufactured from PVC, making it lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and suitable for below-grade, in-wall, and above-slab installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in residential and light commercial drain, waste, and vent systems where a gradual directional offset is required.

This 1/16 bend is used in 3-inch DWV drain lines where a 22.5-degree sweep is needed to navigate around structural obstacles or to align with existing drain runs. Typical applications include branch drain connections, stack offsets, and horizontal drain routing in residential construction and renovation projects. The hub-by-hub end configuration accepts standard 3-inch PVC DWV pipe solvent-welded into each socket end.

Key Features

• 22.5-degree directional change suits tight routing applications in drain and waste lines
• Hub-by-hub (HxH) ends accept standard 3-inch PVC DWV pipe with solvent weld
• PVC construction resists corrosion and chemical degradation from typical drain waste
• Lightweight design simplifies handling and installation in overhead or in-wall rough-in work
• Compatible with standard solvent-weld assembly methods per ASTM and IPC guidelines

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation fitting for 3-inch PVC DWV piping systems using hub-by-hub solvent-weld connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber following applicable International Plumbing Code (IPC) or local code requirements. Before cutting into an existing drain line, ensure the system is taken offline and any traps are protected from sewer gas. Use a proper PVC pipe cutter or miter saw for clean square cuts, and apply PVC primer followed by solvent cement rated for DWV service. Do not use pressure-rated PVC cement or fittings in place of DWV-rated components.
