Description
ABS DWV 45 Reducing Double Wye (ALL HUB)
ABS DWV 45 Reducing Double Wyes provide two opposing 45-degree branch connections while also transitioning between different nominal pipe sizes in non-pressure drain, waste, and vent systems.
Featuring hub connections on all openings, this fitting is designed to connect multiple compatible ABS DWV branch lines into a common main run while accommodating a pipe-size reduction. Each branch enters the main run at a gradual 45-degree angle, helping support smoother drainage flow and minimizing abrupt directional changes. The reducing configuration can also reduce the need for separate reducer fittings in certain layouts. Manufactured for ABS DWV service, it meets recognized standards including ASTM D2661, CSA B181.1, and NSF Standard 14.

Connection Configuration
Main Run Connections
The main hub connections form the primary ABS DWV piping path and accept compatible pipe for solvent-cement installation.
Opposing Reducing Branches
Two branch hubs enter the main run from opposite sides at approximately 45 degrees, with one or more connections reduced depending on the specific size configuration.
45 Reducing Double Wye Design
The 45 reducing double wye combines two opposing wye-style branches with a built-in size transition in one molded ABS fitting.
Each branch enters the main run at approximately 45 degrees, helping create a gradual directional change and efficient drainage path.
Because the fitting is reducing, one or more hub connections may differ in nominal size. Always verify the complete connection configuration before ordering.

Installation
Verify every nominal hub size before installation and identify which connection or connections provide the size reduction.
Cut all mating ABS pipe ends square and remove burrs. Clean and prepare the pipe and hub surfaces according to accepted ABS solvent-cement installation procedures.
Dry-fit the complete assembly before applying solvent cement to confirm main-run alignment, branch orientation, and proper placement of each pipe size.
Apply compatible ABS solvent cement as required and fully seat each pipe into its corresponding hub while maintaining correct alignment.
Allow completed joints to cure according to the solvent cement manufacturer's recommendations before placing the drainage system into service.
Our piping specialists can help review your main-run size, both branch sizes, reductions, fitting orientation, and ABS DWV compatibility before you order.

What is an ABS DWV 45 reducing double wye used for?
It is used to connect two opposing branch lines into a common ABS DWV main run while also transitioning between different nominal pipe sizes.
What does ALL HUB mean?
It means each pipe connection on the fitting is a hub-style connection designed to accept compatible ABS DWV pipe.
How many branch connections does this fitting provide?
It provides two opposing branch connections in addition to the main-run connections.
What angle do the branches enter the main run?
The branches enter the main run at approximately 45 degrees.
What makes this fitting reducing?
One or more hub connections are a different nominal size from the others, allowing the fitting to transition between different pipe sizes.
Which connection is reduced?
The reduced connection depends on the specific size variation. Verify the complete connection-size configuration before ordering.
Why use a double wye instead of separate wyes?
A double wye combines two opposing branch connections into one fitting, which can reduce the number of separate fittings and joints required in certain layouts.
Does this fitting require solvent cement?
Yes. The hub connections are intended for compatible ABS solvent-cement installation.
Is this fitting intended for pressure systems?
No. This fitting is intended for non-pressure drain, waste, vent, sewer, and general drainage applications.
Can it be used for compressed air or gas?
No. The supplied product information states that ABS DWV fittings are not intended for transporting compressed air or gas.
Can this fitting be used for pressure testing?
No. The supplied product information states that ABS DWV fittings should not be used for pressure testing.
What should I verify before ordering?
Confirm every hub size, which connections are reduced, both branch orientations, main-run direction, and compatibility with the intended non-pressure ABS DWV system.
