Nibco E535400 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What sizes does the Nibco 879 DWV return bend come in?
The Nibco 879 DWV return bend is offered in 1-1/4 inch (E535250), 1-1/2 inch (E535300), 2 inch (E535400), 2 x 1-1/2 inch reducing (E535410), and 3 inch (E535450). Sizes are copper tube sizes with solder cups on both ends, so they take DWV copper tube of the matching nominal size.
2) Is a return bend a 180 degree fitting, and what is it used for in a DWV system?
It is a full 180 degree bend, catalogued as a 1/2 bend, so the tube leaves running back parallel to where it came from. In drain, waste and vent work that geometry is what forms the water seal in a trap, keeping sewer gas out of the building.
3) Can I use the Nibco 879 return bend on a pressure water line?
No. This one is a DWV fitting, made for drain, waste and vent service only. For supply piping you need a pressure-rated copper fitting; DWV fittings are thinner-wall and are not intended for pressurized water.
4) Does the 2 inch by 1-1/2 inch return bend let me change pipe size mid-trap?
Yes. E535410 is the reducing version, with a 2 inch cup on one end and a 1-1/2 inch cup on the other, so you can make the 180 degree turn and step the line down in one fitting instead of adding a separate reducer.
5) Is the Nibco 879 return bend cast bronze or wrought copper?
Cast bronze, ASTM B584 alloy C84400, and dezincification resistant. Material and workmanship follow ASME B16.23, which is the standard for cast copper alloy solder joint DWV fittings.
6) What do I need to join a solder-cup DWV return bend?
Solder ends, so the joint is made with flux, solder and heat, not glue or a gasket. Slide the DWV copper tube into the cup and sweat it. No threads on this fitting, both ends are cups, so if you are tying into threaded or plastic pipe you will need a transition fitting.
7) Is this fitting approved for commercial buildings or just houses?
Both. The 879 return bend is listed for commercial and residential plumbing systems, and it is made in an ISO 9001 certified facility.
