Mueller Industries PVC Drain Trap
This Mueller Industries PVC drain trap serves as a female adapter for plumbing systems. It connects 4-inch Schedule 40 pipe using FNPT and hub connections. The fitting is designed for gravity-flow drainage applications in residential or commercial installations. Builders and plumbers use it to join pipe sections securely.
Schedule 40 gravity-flow pressure limit
The adapter operates at gravity-flow maximum pressure only and is not rated for pressurised systems. Its PVC construction handles temperatures from -20 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Exceeding these limits can cause joint failure or material deformation. Installers must verify that the system design stays within these boundaries.
4-inch FNPT and hub connection size
The single specification that decides fit is the 4-inch pipe size with FNPT and socket hub ends. This dimension must match the existing piping exactly for a proper seal. No seal is included, so the joint method must be planned separately. Buyers who need a different diameter or thread type cannot use this fitting.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the Schedule 40 version for a standard drainage run?
Yes — the adapter is built to Schedule 40 dimensions so it matches common PVC drain piping.
What does the 140-degree Fahrenheit rating tell me about daily use?
It sets the upper temperature limit for gravity-flow service; water hotter than that can soften the PVC.
Does the female NPT thread connect directly to a 4-inch hub socket?
The fitting has a 4-inch female NPT end and a 4-inch hub socket end, joining threaded pipe to a solvent-weld hub.
