Multi Fittings 40408 Pvc Street 45 Elbow 8 in SDR-35

Product Description

The MULTI FITTINGS 40408 is an 8-inch SDR-35 PVC street 45-degree elbow designed for solvent weld installation in gravity-flow drainage systems. This fitting accepts a spigot on one end and a socket on the other, allowing direct insertion into a hub fitting without the need for a separate coupling. It is rated for SDR-35 service, making it appropriate for sanitary sewer and storm drainage applications. Licensed plumbers and drainage contractors typically install this fitting during new construction or lateral repair work where a 45-degree change of direction is required in large-diameter PVC pipe runs.

This elbow is suited for 8-inch gravity sewer mains, storm drain laterals, and underground drainage piping in residential and commercial construction. The street configuration simplifies connections in tight or confined trench conditions where reducing the total number of fittings in a run is advantageous. Solvent weld assembly is required for watertight joints in accordance with standard plumbing code practice.

Key Features

• 8-inch diameter SDR-35 PVC construction for gravity sewer and storm drain service
• Street fitting design with one spigot end and one socket end for direct hub connection
• 45-degree sweep provides directional change while maintaining flow capacity
• Solvent weld joint method for a permanent, watertight connection
• SDR-35 wall thickness suitable for buried underground drainage applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 8-inch SDR-35 PVC gravity sewer and storm drainage piping systems installed per applicable plumbing and drainage codes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified drainage contractor in compliance with the International Plumbing Code or locally adopted code. Flow in the system must be stopped and the pipe section must be clean and dry before applying PVC primer and solvent cement. Use the correct SDR-35-rated solvent cement and allow adequate cure time before backfilling or restoring flow. Handle large-diameter fittings carefully during trench work to avoid joint damage prior to assembly.
