1.1/2" PVC Waste Pipe

Core specs include a 1-1/2 inch nominal diameter, PVC material, and availability in various lengths/sizes. It is designed for easy cutting, simple solvent-cement connections, and it offers corrosion and temperature resistance, making it a long-lasting, cost-effective choice for waste drainage.

If you need different waste-pipe sizes, you can consider these related Fepy options: 1-1/4 inch PVC Waste Pipe (https://fepy.com/product/pvc-waste-pipe-1-1-4-inch) for slightly smaller drains, 2 inch PVC Waste Pipe (https://fepy.com/product/pvc-waste-pipe-2-inch) for larger drainage needs, and 3/4 inch PVC Waste Pipe (https://fepy.com/product/pvc-waste-pipe-3-4-inch) for compact applications. Choose based on the fixture drain size and the fittings you plan to use.

Typical applications include drainage for sinks, basins, tubs, showers, and other fixtures. It’s suitable for indoor plumbing waste lines and can be used in outdoor drainage projects where plumbing waste must be conveyed to a proper drain system.

Basic steps: measure and mark the required length, cut the pipe squarely with a saw, deburr the cut edge for a smooth joint, dry-fit with fittings, apply PVC primer (where required) and solvent cement to joints, connect to fittings, and hold the joint for a few seconds to ensure a solid bond. Allow the cement to cure according to the product instructions before testing for leaks.

Wear eye protection and gloves when cutting and handling PVC pipe and cement. Ensure good ventilation when using solvent cement and primer, and avoid skin or eye contact with cement. Keep pipe and chemicals away from children and pets, and follow local codes for disposal of waste materials.

Match the pipe size to the fixture drain and the fittings you’ll use. For a standard sink or fixture, 1-1/2 inch is common, but verify the trap size and wall thickness of your system. Measure the run length accurately and allow for any needed fittings (elbows, couplings, adapters) to avoid over- or under-cutting.

PVC waste pipe is generally suitable for many indoor and some outdoor applications. It offers corrosion resistance and works across a range of temperatures, but prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may require UV-protected members or occasional shielding. Store and install the pipe away from direct sun when possible.

Use standard PVC fittings and solvent cement designed for PVC Schedule 40/40+ systems. Pair with a PVC primer (as required by code or manufacturer) and compatible couplings, elbows, adapters, and end caps to complete your drainage run.

Yes. PVC waste pipes are typically cost-effective due to their low material cost, easy installation, and durable performance in drainage applications. They offer a long service life with low maintenance relative to many metal or alternative plastic options.

Plan to have appropriate fittings (couplings, elbows, adapters), primer and solvent cement, a deburring tool, a suitable saw for cutting, and any end caps or traps needed to complete the drainage run.

Avoid over-cutting or under-cutting the pipe, skipping deburring, using the wrong cement/primer for the pipe type, applying cement without proper alignment, and forcing joints together. Ensure joints are clean, dry, and properly supported to prevent leaks or sagging.
