Description
ABS DWV Cleanout Wye (HUB x HUB x FIPT)
ABS DWV Cleanout Wyes provide a smooth wye-style branch connection with a female threaded cleanout opening for inspection, maintenance, and drain-cleaning access.
Featuring two hub connections on the main run and a female iron pipe thread (FIPT) connection on the cleanout branch, this fitting is designed for non-pressure ABS drain, waste, and vent systems. The wye configuration provides a gradual branch transition while the threaded cleanout opening allows installation of a compatible cleanout plug or accessory for future service access. Manufactured for ABS DWV service, it meets recognized standards including ASTM D2661, CSA B181.1, and NSF Standard 14.

Connection Configuration
Main Run Hubs
The two hub connections form the primary ABS DWV piping run and accept compatible pipe for solvent-cement installation.
Female Threaded Cleanout
The cleanout branch features female iron pipe threads for installation of a compatible threaded plug or cleanout accessory.
Cleanout Wye Design
The cleanout wye combines a gradual wye-style branch path with a threaded service opening.
The angled branch can provide a more direct path into the drainage line for appropriate cleaning equipment, while the FIPT connection allows the opening to be closed with a compatible threaded plug during normal system operation.
This design helps provide future maintenance access without requiring the main piping run to be cut or disassembled.

Installation
Verify both hub sizes and the FIPT cleanout size before installation. Position the fitting so the threaded cleanout opening will remain accessible after surrounding construction is complete.
Cut 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 assembly before applying solvent cement to confirm main-run alignment and cleanout branch orientation.
Apply compatible ABS solvent cement as required and fully seat each pipe into its corresponding hub while maintaining proper alignment.
Install a compatible threaded cleanout plug or accessory in the FIPT branch according to manufacturer recommendations. Allow completed solvent-cement joints to cure before placing the system into service.
Our piping specialists can help review your main-run size, cleanout thread size, fitting orientation, and ABS DWV compatibility before you order.

What is an ABS DWV cleanout wye used for?
It provides a threaded access point to an ABS DWV piping run for inspection, maintenance, rodding, snaking, and other appropriate drain-cleaning procedures.
What does HUB x HUB x FIPT mean?
It means the fitting has two hub connections for the main run and one female iron pipe threaded connection for the cleanout branch.
What is the purpose of the FIPT connection?
The female threaded branch allows installation of a compatible male-threaded cleanout plug or accessory.
Why use a wye for cleanout access?
The angled wye branch provides a gradual access path into the drainage run, which can be useful when inserting appropriate drain-cleaning equipment.
Does the cleanout plug come with the fitting?
The supplied product description identifies the branch as FIPT but does not state that a plug is included. Verify the specific listing contents before ordering.
Should the cleanout remain accessible?
Yes. The fitting should be positioned so the threaded opening can be reached for future inspection and maintenance.
Do the hub connections 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.
What is the maximum operating temperature?
The supplied product information specifies use in applications where operating temperatures do not exceed 140°F.
What should I verify before ordering?
Confirm both hub sizes, the FIPT cleanout size, cleanout accessibility, fitting orientation, and compatibility with the intended non-pressure ABS DWV system.
