CHARLOTTE PIPE PVC DWV 90-DEGREE LONG SWEEP ELBOW - 1-1/2"Long sweep (long turn quarter bend) elbow for PVC drain, waste, and vent piping. The extended-radius 90-degree curve carries flow around the turn more gradually than a standard short-turn elbow, reducing turbulence, slowing wear, and lowering the risk of clogs at the elbow.
- 90-degree long sweep - also called a long turn quarter bend or 1/4 bend
- Hub x Hub solvent-weld connection
- PVC Schedule 40 DWV construction
- Meets ASTM D1784, D2665, and D3311
- NSF Listed
- Service temperature 32 to 140 deg F
- White - matches standard DWV system pipe
- Size: 1-1/2"
Typical Use: Lavatory and bathroom sink drain runs, branch arms, and vent stack jogs where code requires a long-sweep turn.
Tip: Long sweep elbows are preferred over short-turn elbows in horizontal drain runs because the gentler radius keeps solids moving and avoids back-up at the turn. Prime both surfaces, apply solvent cement, push and quarter-turn, hold 30 seconds.
