I am looking for schedule 40 no hub pvc fittings. Installing short stubs in a typical 4" wye to hook furnco bands to make the pitting to long. Does anyone know if these fittings are available?

This should have been fitting. I am looking for a 4 inch wye that will accept a furnco on all 3 sides. They are readily available in cast iron, but not sure if they make them in sch 40 pvc.

You can quit looking. No such fitting! They do make a street wye that yoi could glue in short pieces of PVC in the hubs to make this a No-Hub PVC wye. That's about the best you're going to get. Cheers, Tom

If you really don't have space... and really have to use no-hub Y - and the 4" pipe is to be used for drain... than... why not to use Cast Iron No-Hub Y..

That's what I was afraid of. However the picture you attached looks exactly like a no hub fitting but I guess it is not. I would use cast iron but soda eats the bottom out of it.


Thanks to all for the information.

The street wye I put up is bald on one end, however the other ends are hubbed. Just how tight is this installation? Couldn't you prime and glue short pieces in the hubs and turn this into a No-Hub Fitting?
Let me know, Tom

Can you cut off each end of pipe few inches ? Then you could use regular Y with short nipples glued in...

You. That's what I have been doing and continue to do. This is underslab work and simply requires a much larger hole than a cast no-hub wey. Thanks again
