A sweep outlet is a type of plumbing fitting used to connect a branch line to the main line in a way that minimizes resistance to flow. Unlike a standard tee fitting, which can create turbulence and restrict flow due to its sharp angles, a sweep outlet features a more gradual curve that allows for a smoother transition. 

Key Features of Sweep Outlet Pipe Fittings:

1. Design: The fitting typically has a rounded or curved entry for the branch line, which helps to reduce turbulence and maintain a more efficient flow of liquids or gases.

2. Applications: Commonly used in drainage, venting, and waste systems, sweep outlets are ideal for applications where fluid dynamics are important, such as in plumbing and HVAC systems.

3. Materials: Available in various materials such as PVC, ABS, cast iron, and stainless steel, allowing for use in different environments and with various types of fluids.

4. Sizes: Sweep outlets come in various sizes and diameters to accommodate different pipe sizes and configurations.

5. Installation: They can be connected to pipes using solvent welding, threading, or other methods depending on the material and application.

When selecting a sweep outlet fitting, it’s important to consider the specific requirements of the system, including the type of fluid being transported, the pressure conditions, and local building codes.
