Description
PVC DWV Female Trap Adapter (H x S)
PVC DWV Female Trap Adapter (H x S) provides a transition between compatible PVC drain, waste, and vent piping and a tubular trap or fixture-drain connection. The female trap adapter configuration helps connect the permanent PVC DWV system to compatible tubular drainage components.
The Hub x Slip (H x S) configuration provides a PVC hub connection on the DWV side and a slip-joint connection for compatible tubular drainage piping. This combination allows the PVC side to be solvent welded while maintaining a serviceable mechanical connection at the tubular drain or trap assembly.

Female Trap Adapter Configuration
The female trap adapter configuration provides an interface between permanent PVC DWV piping and compatible tubular drain or trap components. It is useful where a fixture drainage assembly transitions from tubular piping into the PVC drain, waste, and vent system.
Confirm the required PVC and tubular connection sizes before installation so the adapter matches both sides of the planned drainage assembly.
Hub Connection
The hub end is designed to receive compatible PVC DWV pipe or a properly sized spigot connection. This side of the adapter provides the permanent connection to the PVC drainage system through an appropriate solvent-weld assembly.
Properly prepare the compatible PVC mating surfaces and follow the appropriate solvent-welding procedure before completing the hub connection.
Slip-Joint Connection
The slip side provides a mechanical connection for compatible tubular drainage components used with fixture traps and drain assemblies. Unlike the PVC hub connection, the tubular side is assembled as a slip joint rather than being permanently solvent welded.
This arrangement allows the compatible tubular connection to remain serviceable for adjustment, maintenance, or disassembly when required.
PVC DWV Applications
This female trap adapter is intended for compatible PVC drain, waste, and vent systems requiring a transition between permanent PVC piping and a tubular fixture drain or trap assembly.
Before installation, verify both connection sizes, H x S configuration, adjoining PVC piping, tubular component compatibility, fitting orientation, installation clearance, and overall fixture drainage layout.
Installation & Selection Considerations
- Verify the H x S configuration.
- Confirm both connection sizes.
- Check tubular drain compatibility.
- Use proper PVC solvent-welding procedures.
- Verify alignment with the planned trap assembly.
Our PVC DWV fitting specialists can help review your PVC and tubular drain sizes, H x S connection requirements, trap configuration, adjoining PVC piping, slip-joint components, installation clearance, and overall fixture drainage layout before you order.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a PVC DWV Female Trap Adapter used for?
It provides a transition between compatible PVC DWV piping and a tubular drain or trap connection used in a fixture drainage assembly.
What does H x S mean?
H x S identifies the hub and slip connection configuration used by this trap adapter.
What connects to the hub end?
The hub end is designed to receive compatible PVC DWV pipe or a properly sized spigot connection.
What connects to the slip side?
The slip side is designed for a compatible tubular drainage component used with a fixture trap or drain assembly.
Is the slip-joint connection solvent welded?
No. The slip side uses a mechanical slip-joint assembly rather than a permanent solvent-weld connection.
How is the PVC hub connection assembled?
The compatible PVC mating surfaces are prepared and joined using the appropriate PVC solvent-welding procedure and joining products.
Can the tubular connection be serviced?
Yes. The mechanical slip-joint arrangement allows the compatible tubular connection to be loosened for adjustment, maintenance, or disassembly when required.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm both required connection sizes, the H x S configuration, adjoining PVC piping, tubular drain compatibility, and the planned trap or fixture drainage layout.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Check the fitting orientation.
- Verify the H x S configuration.
- Confirm both connection sizes.
- Confirm tubular drain compatibility.
- Follow applicable DWV installation requirements.
