Description
The CHARLOTTE PIPE FOUNDRY CO. PVC 00304 1000HA is a 3-inch Schedule 40 PVC DWV 90-degree long sweep elbow designed for drain, waste, and vent piping systems. The long sweep radius reduces flow restriction and minimizes buildup compared to standard short-turn fittings, making it a reliable choice in gravity-flow drain lines. This fitting is manufactured from Schedule 40 PVC, offering solid wall thickness suited to residential and light commercial DWV applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of horizontal drain runs or offset transitions where a gradual directional change is required.
This elbow is used in residential and commercial DWV systems where a 90-degree direction change is needed with reduced turbulence and improved drainage flow. Typical applications include soil stacks, branch drain lines, and vent connections in new construction and retrofit plumbing work. The 3-inch diameter suits standard water closet and main drain branch sizing in residential installations. This package contains 10 fittings, making it practical for multi-fixture rough-in work or contractor stocking.
