Nibco E601150 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size pipe does the Nibco 892-3 P-trap fit, and what are the two ends?
The Nibco 892-3 is a 2 inch DWV P-trap. One end is a female NPT thread and the other is a slip joint, which is what the F x SJ designation means. The threaded side takes a male threaded nipple or adapter; the slip joint side takes tubing with a slip nut and washer, so you can adjust depth and pull the trap without cutting.
2) Can I take this P-trap apart to snake or clean the line without cutting pipe?
Yes. The 892-3 has a union joint built into the trap, plus a slip joint end, so the trap body comes apart with hand tools for cleaning or rodding and goes back together without disturbing the soldered or threaded connections.
3) Do I solder this trap onto copper DWV tube?
Not at the trap ends themselves. The 892-3 is classified as a solder DWV trap because it belongs in a soldered copper DWV system, but its own connections are female NPT thread on one side and slip joint on the other. To tie into copper DWV tube, solder a male adapter to the tube and thread it into the female end.
4) Is the 892-3 trap copper or brass?
It is cast bronze, ASTM B584 alloy C84400, and dezincification resistant. Material and workmanship follow ASME B16.23. That is a heavier casting than a tubular brass or plastic trap and it is the usual choice where the trap is exposed or subject to abuse.
5) What is an L.A. pattern P-trap and why would I need one?
L.A. pattern refers to the trap configuration required by some West Coast plumbing jurisdictions, and the Nibco 892-3 is built to it. If your inspector or the drawing calls for an L.A. pattern cast bronze trap with a union, this 2 inch F x SJ trap is that item.
6) Is this trap approved for commercial work or is it residential only?
Both. Nibco lists the 892-3 for commercial and residential plumbing on drain, waste and vent systems. The cast bronze body and union joint are the reasons it shows up on commercial sink and floor drain work.
