Product Description

Flexible Solutions for Repair and Alteration Work

Fernco Qwik Tees, Ells, 45° Ells, and Wyes are flexible PVC fittings designed for fast repairs, alterations, and branch connections in above-ground drain, waste, and vent systems.

Their extra length makes them ideal for replacing fittings that have been cut out at the joint, helping simplify jobs where rigid fittings can be difficult to position or install.

The fittings are designed for use with common household DWV pipe materials, including cast iron, plastic, steel, copper, and lead. Reducing connections can also be created using separately supplied Fernco Qwik Bushings.

Repair Existing Systems

Replace damaged or removed fittings without rebuilding large portions of the surrounding piping system.

Work in Tight Spaces

Flexible construction helps installers position fittings in locations where rigid components are difficult to maneuver.

Connect Multiple Materials
