Description
ABS DWV Double Fixture Fitting (ALL HUB)
ABS DWV Double Fixture Fittings provide a balanced connection point for two plumbing fixture drains entering a common vertical drain, waste, and vent system.
Featuring hub connections on all openings, this fitting is designed to connect two opposing fixture branches into a single vertical ABS DWV line while supporting proper drainage and venting. The double-fixture configuration helps balance flow from two fixtures and can simplify back-to-back or closely spaced plumbing layouts. Manufactured for ABS DWV service, it meets recognized standards including ASTM D2661, CSA B181.1, and NSF Standard 14.

Connection Configuration
Vertical Run Connections
The main hub connections form the vertical ABS DWV piping run and accept compatible pipe for solvent-cement installation.
Opposing Fixture Branches
Two opposing hub connections allow separate fixture drain lines to enter the common vertical run from opposite sides.
Double Fixture Design
The double fixture fitting is intended for layouts where two plumbing fixtures need to connect to the same vertical DWV line at or near the same elevation.
Its opposing branch configuration can be especially useful in back-to-back fixture arrangements, such as sinks or lavatories installed on opposite sides of a wall.
The internal geometry is designed to support the flow and venting requirements associated with dual fixture connections while keeping the assembly compact.

Installation
Verify every nominal hub size and confirm that the fitting orientation matches the intended vertical run and opposing fixture branch layout.
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 entire assembly before applying solvent cement to confirm alignment of the vertical run and both fixture branches.
Apply compatible ABS solvent cement as required and fully seat each pipe into its corresponding hub while maintaining proper alignment.
Allow completed joints to cure according to the solvent cement manufacturer's recommendations before placing the drainage or vent system into service.
Our piping specialists can help review your fixture layout, branch sizes, vertical drain size, fitting orientation, and ABS DWV compatibility before you order.

What is an ABS DWV double fixture fitting used for?
It is used to connect two fixture drain lines to a common vertical ABS DWV piping run while supporting drainage and venting for both fixtures.
What does ALL HUB mean?
It means every pipe connection on the fitting is a hub-style connection designed to accept compatible ABS DWV pipe.
How many fixture connections does this fitting have?
It provides two opposing fixture branch connections in addition to the main vertical-run connections.
Is this fitting commonly used for back-to-back fixtures?
Yes. Its opposing branch configuration can be useful where two fixtures are positioned on opposite sides of a common wall and connect to the same vertical DWV line.
Is a double fixture fitting the same as a double sanitary tee?
No. Although the fittings may appear similar, a double fixture fitting is specifically configured for appropriate dual-fixture drainage and venting applications. Follow applicable plumbing codes when selecting between fitting types.
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 is the maximum operating temperature?
The supplied product information specifies applications where operating temperatures do not exceed 140°F.
What should I verify before ordering?
Confirm every hub size, both fixture branch sizes, vertical drain size, fitting orientation, mating ABS DWV pipe sizes, and the intended non-pressure plumbing application.
