Description
PVC DWV Long Sweep 1/4 Bend 90° Elbow (HUB x HUB)
PVC DWV Long Sweep 1/4 Bend 90° Elbows provide a gradual 90-degree directional change designed to support efficient gravity flow in 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 extended sweep radius creates a smoother flow path than a standard short-radius elbow, helping reduce turbulence and the potential for debris accumulation in residential, commercial, and institutional DWV systems.

Connection Configuration
First Hub
The first hub accepts compatible PVC DWV pipe for a permanent solvent-weld connection.
Long Sweep Bend
The extended-radius body creates a gradual 90-degree transition that supports smoother gravity drainage through the fitting.
Second Hub
The opposite hub accepts the outgoing section of compatible PVC DWV pipe to complete the directional change.
Construction Details
The elbow is manufactured from durable PVC for corrosion resistance and dependable long-term service in compatible non-pressure drain, waste, and vent systems.
The long sweep radius provides a more gradual flow path than a standard 90-degree elbow, helping reduce abrupt directional changes within the drainage system.
Hub connections on both ends are designed for solvent-cement joining to compatible PVC pipe, creating permanent connections when properly installed.
Why Choose a Long Sweep 90° Elbow?
Smoother Flow Path
- Gradual 90° directional change
- Longer-radius bend than a standard elbow
- Helps reduce turbulence
- Supports efficient gravity drainage
- Can help reduce areas where debris may collect
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
- Building drains
- Waste piping
- Fixture drainage systems
- Horizontal drainage runs
- General DWV layouts
Commercial & Institutional Systems
- Commercial drainage systems
- Building waste piping
- Institutional plumbing systems
- Repair and retrofit work
- Compatible gravity-flow DWV systems
Solvent-Weld Installation
Cut compatible PVC DWV pipe square and remove burrs before installation. Clean and prepare the pipe ends and elbow 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 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, DWV layout, bend requirements, and solvent-weld installation needs before you order.

What is a PVC DWV long sweep 1/4 bend?
It is a 90-degree DWV elbow with an extended bend radius that creates a more gradual directional change than a standard 90-degree elbow.
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 the advantage of a long sweep design?
The longer-radius bend provides a smoother flow path that can reduce turbulence and support more efficient gravity drainage.
What angle does this fitting create?
The fitting changes the direction of the piping system by 90 degrees.
How is this elbow installed?
Both hub connections are installed using an approved PVC solvent-weld procedure.
Is this fitting intended for pressure piping?
No. This elbow is intended for non-pressurized drain, waste, and vent systems.
What material is the fitting made from?
The elbow is manufactured from durable, corrosion-resistant PVC.
How is a long sweep elbow different from a standard 90° elbow?
A long sweep elbow uses a larger bend radius, creating a more gradual directional change through the fitting.
Do I need PVC primer and solvent cement?
Use compatible PVC primer and solvent cement as required by the manufacturer, solvent-cement instructions, and applicable plumbing requirements.
What should I verify before ordering?
Confirm the nominal pipe size, Hub x Hub configuration, long sweep requirement, and compatibility with the intended PVC DWV system.
