Description
ABS DWV P-Trap (HUB x HUB)
ABS DWV P-Traps create a water seal within a drainage line to help prevent sewer gases from entering occupied spaces while allowing wastewater to flow through the system.
Featuring hub connections on both ends, this fitting is designed for use in non-pressure ABS drain, waste, and vent systems. The curved trap body retains a small amount of water after drainage, forming a seal between the fixture side and the sanitary drainage system. Manufactured for ABS DWV service, it meets recognized standards including ASTM D2661, CSA B181.1, and NSF Standard 14.

Connection Configuration
Fixture-Side Hub
One hub connection accepts compatible ABS DWV pipe or an appropriate connecting section from the fixture drain side.
Drain-Side Hub
The opposite hub connects the trap outlet to compatible ABS DWV piping leading into the sanitary drainage system.
P-Trap Design
The curved P-trap body is designed to retain water after wastewater passes through the fitting.
This retained water forms the trap seal, helping prevent sewer gases from traveling backward through the drainage system and entering the occupied space through the fixture opening.
Proper trap installation, venting, orientation, and trap-seal protection are important to reliable DWV system performance.

Installation
Verify both nominal hub sizes before installation and confirm that the trap configuration is appropriate for the intended fixture and DWV piping 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 trap and adjoining piping before applying solvent cement to confirm proper orientation, alignment, and trap positioning.
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 trap size, fixture connection, drain layout, and ABS DWV compatibility before you order.

What is an ABS DWV P-trap used for?
It is used in a fixture drainage line to create a water seal that helps prevent sewer gases from entering the occupied space.
What does HUB x HUB mean?
It means both ends are hub-style connections designed to accept compatible ABS DWV pipe.
How does a P-trap block sewer gases?
The curved trap body retains water after drainage. This standing water forms a seal between the fixture opening and the sanitary drainage system.
Does a P-trap need to remain filled with water?
Yes. The water retained in the trap provides the barrier that helps prevent sewer gases from passing through the fixture drain.
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, and vent 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 both nominal hub sizes, fixture-drain size, mating ABS DWV pipe size, trap configuration, and intended non-pressure application.
