Product Identity
The Mueller Industries 1WKG8 is a 4-inch hub by male NPT PVC drain adapter built to Schedule 40 dimensions. It carries ASTM D1784 compliance and a cell class 12454 rating for material consistency. The white fitting is intended for non-pressure drainage, waste and vent systems. It is supplied new and ready for solvent-weld assembly.
Who It Suits
Installers joining a 4-inch hub socket to a male threaded pipe in residential or light-commercial DWV networks will find the fitting matches standard Schedule 40 sizing. The 140-degree Fahrenheit temperature ceiling and non-pressure rating exclude it from hot-water supply lines, pressurised systems or any application above that thermal limit.
Build Integration
The hub end accepts a 4-inch PVC pipe for solvent cementing while the male NPT thread mates with a matching female threaded fitting or valve. No gaskets, clamps or specialised tools are required beyond standard PVC primer and cement. The Schedule 40 wall thickness keeps the joint compatible with other Schedule 40 components in the same drainage stack.
