Trap Adapter Design
The male trap adapter configuration provides a transition between a compatible PVC DWV hub connection and a serviceable slip-joint connection. This arrangement is useful where an adjoining trap or fixture drainage component requires a removable connection.
The adapter should be positioned so the spigot and slip-side components align naturally before final assembly. Planning the installation helps coordinate trap position, adjoining piping, nearby components, and available service clearance.
Spigot & Slip Connections
The spigot connection fits into an appropriately sized compatible receiving hub, while the slip connection interfaces with the compatible adjoining slip-joint component. Each connection should be matched to the intended component before assembly.
The spigot side should be prepared using the appropriate PVC DWV joining procedure. The slip side should be assembled with the supplied plastic nut positioned correctly for the intended serviceable connection.
Plastic Nut Connection
The plastic nut is included for the slip-side connection of the trap adapter. It provides the component used to secure the compatible adjoining slip-joint connection.
The nut should be started carefully and kept properly aligned during assembly. The connection should remain accessible where future adjustment, inspection, or disassembly may be required.
PVC DWV Integration
The PVC DWV construction allows the trap adapter to integrate into compatible drain, waste, and vent piping arrangements. Matching the nominal size and both connection interfaces to the adjoining components helps maintain the intended drainage configuration.
Application suitability should be evaluated using the requirements of the complete DWV system. Connection compatibility, adjoining materials, trap alignment, joining materials, service access, and local installation requirements should all be considered during fitting selection.
Installation & Selection Considerations
- Confirm the nominal size.
- Verify the SPG x SLIP arrangement.
- Check PVC DWV compatibility.
- Confirm the plastic nut configuration.
- Maintain access to the slip connection.
Our PVC fitting specialists can help review your nominal size, DWV requirements, SPG x SLIP configuration, adjoining receiving hub, slip connection, plastic nut, trap alignment, and available service clearance before you order.
