The ABS DWV 90-degree elbow features a hub x female NPT thread connection and is used to change the direction of flow. Please refer to NIBCO technical data sheets and catalogs for engineering and installation information. Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene (ABS) is resistant to a wide variety of materials ranging from sewage to commercial household chemical formulations and can be exposed to a wide temperature span. ABS is lightweight, safe to handle and easy to install. ABS DWV is joined by solvent cementing or threading and can easily be connected to steel, copper, or cast iron through the use of transition fittings. NIBCO® plastic fittings are backed by a 5-year limited warranty. Because of its longstanding reputation for innovation and precision in design and manufacturing, NIBCO is the preferred brand in the industry.

Nibco I064500 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What do the two ends of the Nibco 5807-3 ABS elbow connect to?
One end is a hub (socket) for solvent cementing onto 3 inch ABS DWV pipe, the other is a female NPT thread. So you cement one side and thread the other, which is how you bring a threaded item, trap adapter, or a transition nipple into an ABS drain line without cutting a new fitting into the run.
2) Will a 3 inch ABS DWV elbow work on Schedule 40 pipe?
Yes. The 5807-3 is a Schedule 40 DWV fitting sized for 3 inch pipe, so it mates with standard 3 inch Schedule 40 ABS DWV pipe using solvent cement on the hub side.
3) What temperature range can ABS DWV fittings handle, and can I air test the line?
Service temperature runs -40F to 180F, which covers normal drain and waste discharge including dishwasher and laundry water. Do not test or use the system with compressed air or other gases. Use a water test.
4) Does this Nibco ABS elbow meet code for a permitted drainage job?
It is made to ASTM D2665 and ASTM D2661 and D3311, carries NSF/ANSI Standard 14 certification and NSF U.P. certification, and is UL Listed 94V-0. Those are the listings an inspector looks for on ABS DWV fittings.
5) Can I use this ABS elbow to tie into existing cast iron or copper drain lines?
Not directly, but it is done all the time with transition fittings. ABS DWV can be connected to steel, copper, or cast iron through the use of transition fittings, and the female NPT end on this elbow also lets you thread into a metal nipple or adapter at that junction.
6) Is this a 1/4 bend, and can I use it on a vent as well as a drain?
It is a 90 degree elbow, the fitting a plumber calls a 1/4 bend. It is a DWV pattern fitting for drain, waste, and vent lines, in both commercial and residential systems. It is not a pressure fitting, so keep it out of water supply piping.
7) Will this black ABS fitting match the existing drain piping in my building?
It is black ABS, the standard color for ABS DWV, so it matches existing black ABS drain and vent piping. If the building's drain lines are white PVC, this is not the same material and should not be solvent cemented to them; specify PVC DWV fittings for those systems.
8) What part number do I order for the 3 inch hub by female thread ABS 90?
Nibco 5807-3, manufacturer part number I064500. It is the 3 inch size, straight size (not a reducing pattern), with the threaded outlet.
9) Will ABS hold up to drain cleaners and sewage in a commercial building?
ABS is resistant to a wide range of materials from sewage to commercial and household chemical formulations, which is why it is used in both commercial and residential drainage. It is also light and easy to handle for overhead work.
