ABSTRACT:
A plumbing fitting that is formed so as to be capable of a quick connection to a plastic drainage pipe. The plumbing fitting can be attached to the drainage system with the final plumbing construction and avoids the need for a plumber to make any separate trips to the construction site during wall build out. The plumbing fitting includes a hollow metal spout that has a substantially cylindrical attachment area and a stop. A hollow plastic connector, substantially cylindrical in its outer surface, is attached to the metal spout by sliding the connector into the attachment area of the spout until the connector contacts the stop. The plastic connector can be attached to the spout by a friction or press fitting. The hollow plastic connector is itself formed in an inner surface so as to be capable of attachment to a drain pipe through standard solvent welded female-to-male quick connection.
