Piping System Applications
>> Note: Solid Wall and Cellular Core Pipe
PVC DWV Fittings can be installed with
cellular core pipe or “dual marked” solid
wall pipe.
ASTM F 891 cellular core pipe is lighter,
cuts faster and costs less. Never use for
pressure applications.
Solid wall PVC pipe is often rated for both
pressure (ASTM D 1785) and non-pressure
(ASTM D 2665) applications — often
referred to as “dual marked. When solid
wall or cellular core pipe is used with PVC
DWV fittings, the resulting system is NOT
pressure rated.
