Description
PVC DWV 1/16 Bend 22.5° Elbow (HUB x HUB)
PVC DWV 1/16 Bend 22.5° Elbows provide a gentle directional change for non-pressurized drain, waste, and vent piping systems.
Featuring hub connections on both ends, this fitting accepts compatible PVC DWV pipe for permanent solvent-weld installation. The 22.5-degree bend is useful for making smaller alignment adjustments and offsets while maintaining a smooth flow path through residential, commercial, and institutional DWV systems.

Connection Configuration
First Hub
The first hub accepts compatible PVC DWV pipe for a permanent solvent-weld connection.
22.5° Bend
The 1/16 bend creates a gentle 22.5-degree directional adjustment for fine-tuning pipe alignment and routing.
Second Hub
The opposite hub accepts the outgoing section of compatible PVC DWV pipe to complete the transition.
Construction Details
The elbow is manufactured from durable PVC for resistance to corrosion, chemicals, moisture, and long-term wear in compatible DWV systems.
Precision-molded hub connections on both ends are designed for solvent-cement joining to compatible PVC pipe, creating secure permanent joints when properly installed.
The smooth internal bore and gentle 22.5-degree geometry help maintain efficient flow while reducing abrupt changes in direction.
Why Choose a 1/16 Bend?
Fine-Tuned Alignment
- Creates a 22.5° directional adjustment
- Useful for small pipe offsets
- Helps fine-tune DWV layouts
- Provides a gentler turn than 45° or 90° fittings
- Suitable for new installations and repairs
PVC DWV Construction
- Corrosion-resistant material
- Lightweight construction
- Resistant to many common plumbing chemicals
- Designed for solvent-weld assembly
- Suitable for long-term non-pressure service
Typical Applications
Residential DWV Systems
- Drain piping offsets
- Waste piping alignment
- Vent piping adjustments
- Fixture drainage systems
- General plumbing layouts
Commercial & Institutional DWV
- Building drainage systems
- Commercial waste piping
- Vent system routing
- Repair and retrofit work
- Institutional plumbing systems
Solvent-Weld Installation
Cut compatible PVC DWV pipe square and remove burrs before installation. Clean and prepare the pipe ends and fitting hubs according to accepted PVC solvent-weld procedures.
Apply compatible PVC primer and solvent cement where required, fully seat each pipe into the appropriate hub, and confirm the required 22.5-degree orientation before the cement begins to set.
Allow all completed joints to cure according to the solvent-cement manufacturer's recommendations before placing the system into normal service.
Our plumbing specialists can help review your pipe size, required offset, DWV layout, and solvent-weld installation needs before you order.

What angle is a 1/16 bend?
A 1/16 bend provides a 22.5-degree directional change.
What does HUB x HUB mean?
Hub x Hub means both ends of the fitting contain socket connections designed to accept compatible PVC pipe.
What is a 22.5° elbow used for?
It is commonly used to make small directional adjustments or offsets in compatible drain, waste, and vent piping.
How is the fitting installed?
Both hub connections are installed using compatible PVC solvent-weld procedures.
Is this fitting intended for pressure piping?
No. This fitting is intended for non-pressure drain, waste, and vent systems.
What material is the fitting made from?
The elbow is manufactured from durable, corrosion-resistant PVC.
Why use a 22.5° elbow instead of a 45° elbow?
A 22.5-degree elbow provides a smaller directional adjustment when the piping layout requires a more subtle offset.
Can this fitting be used for vent piping?
Yes. It can be used in compatible DWV vent layouts where a 22.5-degree directional change is appropriate.
What standards are referenced for this fitting?
The supplied product information references ASTM D2665, ASTM D1784, CSA B181.2, and applicable NSF/ANSI standards.
What should I verify before ordering?
Confirm the nominal pipe size, Hub x Hub configuration, 22.5-degree bend requirement, and compatibility with the intended PVC DWV system.
