Westlake Pipe Fittings g408 8 in Sdr 35 Pvc 45 Deg Street Elbow

Product Description

The WESTLAKE PIPE FITTINGS g408 is an 8-inch SDR 35 PVC sewer fitting designed for gravity-flow drainage and sewer collection systems. It functions as a 45-degree street elbow with a gasketed one-end connection, allowing it to mate directly into a hub without a separate coupling. The spigot end inserts into a downstream fitting while the gasketed bell end receives an upstream pipe. Weighing 10.8 pounds, this fitting is built for underground sewer main and lateral installations where SDR 35 wall thickness and flexible gasketed joints are required by code.

This fitting is used in residential and commercial sewer lateral and main-line installations, typically in trenched underground applications. The 45-degree bend angle is used to transition pipe runs and route lines around obstructions or change direction on gravity-fed sewer systems. It is installed by licensed plumbers and sewer contractors working to local plumbing and drainage codes. SDR 35 PVC is a standard specification for gravity sewer service and is widely accepted by municipal and private sewer system specifications.

Key Features

• 45-degree bend angle for direction changes on gravity sewer runs
• Gasketed one-end bell connection for leak-resistant, flexible joint assembly
• Street configuration spigot end inserts directly into a hub fitting
• SDR 35 wall thickness meets standard gravity sewer service requirements
• PVC construction resists corrosion, root intrusion, and chemical exposure common in sewer environments
• 8-inch size suits main-line and large lateral sewer applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-spec fitting for 8-inch SDR 35 PVC gravity sewer piping systems using gasketed bell-and-spigot joint assembly.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or sewer contractor in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and ASTM D3034 specifications for SDR 35 PVC sewer pipe. Verify trench bedding and pipe support requirements before placing the fitting. Lubricate the gasket and spigot end with an approved pipe lubricant before seating the joint. Do not use solvent cement on gasketed joints and do not exceed allowable deflection at the joint during backfill.
