DWV bushings are used in the construction of drain, waste, vent plumbing systems to connect pipes with different diameters. They are designed with different sized inlets and outlets to create a smooth transition and secure joint between pipe sizes. This is vital to the construction of DWV systems to ensure proper flow and ventilation so wastes are properly removed and gasses, vapors, and exhausts are vented out. DWV bushings work by fitting inside a larger pipe or fitting to reduce its internal diameter to match that of a smaller connecting pipe. PVC DWV bushings have a spigot (male) end that fits into a pipe and a hub (female) end that receives the end of another pipe to securely complete the connection. By allowing pipes of different diameters to be connected, DWV bushings ensure drainage and vent installations can be customized to meet the specific requirements of any building's plumbing system.
DWV Bushing Sizes and Options
Our DWV adapters offer a robust, economical solution engineered for seamless installation and long term reliability in configuring, repairing, or extending DWV networks. DWV bushing sizes range from 2” x 1-1/2" up to 8” x 6” in diameter with spigot by hub (SPG x H) connections.
Features and Benefits
Crafted from premium grade PVC, DWV bushings offer several benefits to ensure efficient, reliable, and long lasting performance against the demanding conditions of DWV systems.
- PVC Material: Made from PVC for corrosion resistance, chemical stability, low weight, low cost, and long term durability.
- Hard Working: Engineered to hold up against the harsh conditions of DWV systems.
- Smooth Flow: Smooth interior walls minimize friction and turbulence to maintain flow conditions.
- Sizes: Available in a range of reducing sizes from 2” x 1-1/2" up to 8” x 6” in diameter.
- Connections: DWV bushings come in spigot by hub connections.
- Ease of Installation: Lightweight and designed for a perfect fit to simplify installation.
Quality and Safety Standards
Our DWV bushings are manufactured in the USA from premium ASTM D1784 Cell Class 12454 PVC material. DWV bushings meet or exceed ASTM D2665, ASTM D3311, and NSF 14 standards for approved use in DWV applications. These rigorous industry standards guarantee the bushings are consistently high-quality, reliable, and durable. Engineered, tested, and certified to comply with local building and plumbing codes, our DWV bushings meet the necessary regulations and requirements for safeguarding public and environmental health.
The robust thermoplastic PVC used in our DWV fittings offers exceptional durability and longevity. PVC DWV bushings provide resistance against corrosion, weather exposure, underground soil chemistry, and damage from commonly handled waste chemicals, liquids such as sewage, sewer gasses, and exhaust fumes. The fittings are non flammable, provide excellent electrical insulation, feature minimal thermal absorption, and have smooth interior walls that resist scaling and buildup. DWV bushings have an operating temperature range up to 140°F (60°C) and a minimum of 32°F (0°C) when used in water-based systems.
Applications and Uses
DWV bushings are designed to adapt larger pipes to smaller ones and ensure a secure reduction in diameter for drain, waste, and vent applications. This versatility allows their use in adjusting pipe sizes, creating connections between different components, and ensuring a leak proof seal where size transitions are necessary to meet DWV system design requirements. DWV bushings find extensive use in residential and commercial plumbing systems to join pipes used to manage the flow of water, waste liquids, and solids away from structural fixtures like toilets, sinks, showers, and drains toward city sewers or septic systems. They are used in agricultural and industrial settings for their chemical resistance and capability to handle waste materials containing chemicals, by-products, or corrosive fluids. DWV bushings are also used in venting systems to safely direct gasses, fumes, vapors, and exhausts from sewer systems or those generated by onsite activities.
Our DWV tees are a leading choice in exceptional quality and professional performance. They are Uniform Plumbing Code certified and comply with all industry standards for DWV systems. Precision engineered to meet the demanding requirements of drain, waste, and vent plumbing systems, our products are designed to not just meet but exceed expectations.
