Description
ABS DWV Sanitary Tee (HUB x HUB x HUB)
ABS DWV Sanitary Tees provide a branch connection in non-pressure drain, waste, and vent systems while maintaining a smooth transition into the main piping run.
Featuring three hub connections, this fitting is designed to connect compatible ABS DWV pipe in sanitary drainage, waste, vent, sewer, and general drainage applications. The branch enters the main run through a curved sanitary pattern to support proper drainage flow and venting. Manufactured for ABS DWV service, it conforms to ASTM D2661, CSA B181.1, and NSF Standard 14.

Connection Configuration
Main Run Hubs
Two hub connections form the primary piping run and accept compatible ABS DWV pipe for solvent-cement installation.
Branch Hub
The third hub forms the branch connection and accepts compatible ABS DWV pipe entering the sanitary tee.
Sanitary Tee Design
The sanitary tee uses a curved branch transition rather than an abrupt intersection, helping guide flow into the main run in drainage and vent applications.
This configuration is commonly used where a branch line connects to a vertical or otherwise code-approved DWV piping arrangement.
All three hub connections are designed for compatible ABS solvent-cement joining and non-pressure drainage service.

Installation
Verify the nominal sizes of all three hub connections before installation and confirm compatibility with the intended ABS DWV piping layout.
Cut all mating 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 first to confirm branch orientation before applying solvent cement.
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 run size, branch size, piping orientation, and ABS DWV compatibility before you order.

What is an ABS DWV sanitary tee used for?
It is used to create a branch connection within a non-pressure ABS drain, waste, or vent piping system.
What does HUB x HUB x HUB mean?
It means all three connections are hubs designed to accept compatible ABS DWV pipe for solvent-cement installation.
How many connections does this fitting have?
It has three hub connections: two for the main run and one for the branch.
What makes this a sanitary tee?
The branch connection uses a curved sanitary pattern intended to guide flow into the main piping run more smoothly than an abrupt square intersection.
