PVC DWV test opening tees are installed in a straight pipe run to provide a capped opening for testing and inspecting the line.
The cap closes the test opening during normal use. It can be removed when the pipework needs to be tested, inspected or maintained and refitted afterward. The cap is included with the fitting.
Female-Female test opening tees have two female sockets that fit over matching PVC DWV pipe.
Male-Female test opening tees have one female socket that fits over matching pipe and one pipe-size spigot that fits inside the socket of another matching fitting.
The pipe connections are joined using PVC priming fluid and suitable non-pressure PVC solvent cement. This joining method is known as a solvent weld joint, or SWJ.
PVC DWV pipe and fittings are identified by nominal sizes, which may differ from their measured outside diameters. Please confirm the correct size and connection arrangement before ordering.
Compatible 150mm and larger fittings may also suit PVC stormwater pipe and fittings where the nominal size and outside diameter match.
PVC DWV pipe and fittings are suitable for use in stormwater, sewerage, wastewater, vent, and other non-pressure applications.
