This adapter is ideal for projects where you need to transition from a slip-fit PVC drain line to a threaded connection without sacrificing durability or compliance. Use it to retrofit or repair 1-1/4 in drainage runs in bathrooms, kitchens, laundry areas, or other DWV layouts where a threaded connection is required on one end.

This approach helps seal potential leaks and keeps your DWV system running smoothly for years to come.
