DWV 90 Degree Bend MF
The DWV 90 Degree Bend MF is a standard drainage fitting used to change the direction of pipework in Drain, Waste & Vent (DWV) systems. Designed with a male and female (MF) configuration, it allows for a secure solvent-weld connection between lengths of pipe and fittings, making it suitable for a wide range of residential and commercial plumbing applications.
Although commonly referred to as a “90 degree” bend, the fitting is typically manufactured at approximately 85–88 degrees to support proper drainage flow and reduce the risk of blockages in gravity-fed systems.
