DWV PVC Socket Reducer M&F SWJ

Description

DWV PVC Socket Reducer M&F SWJ – Flexible Pipe Size Reduction for DWV Systems

The DWV PVC Socket Reducer M&F SWJ is a key fitting used in Drain, Waste, and Vent (DWV) systems. It facilitates the connection between pipes of different diameters, providing smooth transitions to manage flow effectively. Featuring Male-and-Female (M&F) connections, the socket reducer offers flexibility in installation and creates watertight joints in both vertical and horizontal setups. Its durable PVC construction ensures long-term performance, even in challenging environments.

What is a DWV PVC Socket Reducer M&F?

This fitting connects larger pipes to smaller ones, making it ideal for changing pipe sizes in a system. The M&F connection allows for easy installation, and the solvent weld joint ensures a leak-proof seal. It is commonly used in vent systems and other applications where maintaining the pipe’s height or invert level isn’t a critical factor, such as vertical installations.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Size Transition: Smoothly connects pipes of varying diameters, facilitating flow management.
• M&F Connection: One end fits larger pipes while the other accepts smaller pipes, allowing flexible installations.
• Durable Construction: Made from high-quality PVC, resistant to corrosion and UV rays, ensuring long-lasting performance.
• Leak-Proof Seal: The solvent weld joint (SWJ) guarantees a watertight seal, maintaining system integrity.
• Compliance: Meets AS/NZS 1260 standards, ensuring safety and performance in Australian DWV systems.

Applications:

• Sewer and Vent Systems: Ideal for connecting pipes of different sizes without needing to maintain invert levels.
• Stormwater and Wastewater Systems: Ensures smooth transitions between pipes in systems that don’t rely on gravity flow.
• Residential and Commercial Plumbing: Suited for both small residential and large-scale commercial projects.

Difference Between a Socket Reducer and a Level Inverter Taper:

While both fittings connect pipes of different sizes, a socket reducer is mainly used in vertical or non-gravity systems, where maintaining the invert level (the pipe’s internal bottom surface) isn’t necessary. In contrast, a level inverter taper is designed to maintain a consistent invert level during size reduction, making it crucial in gravity-fed systems like sewers. Therefore, a socket reducer works in venting and non-gravity applications, while a level inverter taper is essential for horizontal installations where smooth flow continuity is required.

Specifications:

• Material: High-quality PVC, corrosion-resistant, durable in harsh conditions.
• Connection Type: Male-and-Female (M&F) with solvent weld joint (SWJ) for secure installation.
• Size Range: Available in a variety of sizes to accommodate different project needs.

Why Choose the DWV PVC Socket Reducer M&F SWJ?

The DWV PVC Socket Reducer M&F SWJ offers a reliable solution for connecting pipes of different diameters, whether for venting, stormwater, or wastewater systems. Its flexibility and durable construction ensure long-lasting performance, while the SWJ connections provide a watertight seal. Perfect for vertical installations or non-gravity systems, this fitting guarantees efficient and seamless transitions.
