Watts NH-BL-2-45Y – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Watts NH-BL-2-45Y and where does it go in a drain line?
It's a 2 inch, 45 degree wye fitting from the Watts Blueline no hub line. A wye branches a drainage line at 45 degrees, so it's the fitting used where a branch drain ties into a main run and you need flow to turn gradually instead of at a hard right angle. Order it by part number NH-BL-2-45Y.
2) Does the NH-BL-2-45Y wye use hubless (no hub) connections?
Yes. The NH-BL-2-45Y is a no hub fitting, so all three openings are plain spigot ends joined with no hub couplings and clamps rather than lead and oakum or solvent weld. The couplings are a separate purchase, so count one per joint when you order.
3) What pipe size does the Watts NH-BL-2-45Y wye fit?
It's a 2 inch fitting, so all three openings mate to 2 inch hubless pipe or fittings. For a branch tying a smaller line into a 2 inch main you'd want a reducing wye instead; this one is straight 2 inch throughout.
4) Is the Watts NH-BL-2-45Y Buy American Act compliant for a federal job?
No. The Watts NH-BL-2-45Y wye is listed as not Buy American Act compliant, so it will not satisfy a BAA or federally funded procurement clause. On government or federally funded work, specify a fitting that carries a BAA compliant designation.
5) Can I use a 45 degree wye instead of a sanitary tee for a drain branch?
For a horizontal branch into a horizontal run, the 45 degree wye is the correct pattern because it turns the flow gradually and keeps solids moving; a sanitary tee is meant for vertical drops, not horizontal-to-horizontal connections. The NH-BL-2-45Y is a 2 inch no hub wye for exactly that branch application, usually paired with a 45 degree elbow to bring the branch back to level.
