Qwik Tees And Elbows
let you connect all common household drain, waste and vent pipes quickly and easily without using special tools or fittings. Because they're exceptionally flexible and extra long, they're the ideal replacement for fittings cut out at the joint during alteration or repair. The connectors are easily installed by tightening the stainless steel clamps. Made from flexible PVC, Quik-Tees and Qwik-Elbows come in four sizes (1-1/2", 2", 3" and 4") and fit all common household pipes including cast iron, steel, plastic, copper and lead. Reducing sizes are made with separately supplied bushings. |

To Repair Or Replace A Plastic Ell or Tee
To repair this installed rigid elbow it is first necessary to cut out the elbow. After cutting, the portion of pipe that was welded into each socket is lost, and now a regular schedule 40 fitting can no longer be used in replacement unless the pipes are extended back to normal position. Also, the pipes are usually in a fixed position, making it difficult or impossible to get the necessary room required to solvent weld a new joint. The Qwik Elbows and Qwik Tees, however, are engineered with extra length and flexibility to compensate for the shortened pipes. Installation Instructions 1. To remove existing elbow or tee, cut pipe at joints as shown. 2. Slip Pipe into fitting socket. 3. Securely tighten stainless steel bands. (60" lbs. torque.) 4. Support pipe on all sides of connection to keep weight off fitting. 5. Test for leaks before concealing. Note: Not recommended for underground connections. For drain, waste, and vent use only. In-wall pipe should be supported. Do not use in pressure applications. Tees and elbows adapt to other pipe sizes with Qwik Bushings. |
