Mueller PVC Wye 45° Elbow
This Mueller Industries 05837 is a Schedule 40 PVC combination wye and 45 degree reducing elbow. It connects a 3 inch main line with a 1 1/2 inch branch using female socket hubs. The white fitting is designed for gravity flow drainage systems operating between -20 degrees and 140 degrees F.
Suits 3 inch DWV branch connections
Plumbers joining a 1 1/2 inch branch into a 3 inch drain-waste-vent line will find this hub-by-hub fitting matches the required dimensions. It is not for pressure applications exceeding gravity flow limits. Builders needing a straight coupling, a different branch angle, or a slip-joint connection should look at other fitting types.
Schedule 40 PVC gravity flow rating
The single specification that decides fit is the Schedule 40 gravity flow maximum operating pressure rating. This defines the wall thickness and pressure boundary for the 3 inch by 1 1/2 inch hub configuration. Verify your system design stays within gravity flow parameters before selecting this 05837 model.

Questions about this item
Does the PVC Wye 45° Elbow Trap 05837 generate any noise or heat when water runs through it all day?
The fitting is a passive Schedule 40 PVC component with no moving parts, so it produces no noise or heat during continuous gravity-flow drainage.
What existing pipe and fittings must I already have to install the 3×3×1½ in Wye 45° Elbow Trap 05837?
You need 3 in and 1½ in Schedule 40 PVC pipe with matching socket hubs, plus compatible solvent cement and primer for solvent-weld joints.
Will the 05837 Wye 45° Elbow Trap connect directly to older Schedule 40 PVC pipe already in the ground?
Yes, its socket hubs are sized for standard Schedule 40 PVC outside diameters, so it solvent-welds to existing Schedule 40 pipe of the same nominal sizes.
