I am replacing a short section of 4" stack with a new tee followed by a new wye (for use as a cleanout). The tee will mate with the existing cast iron at the floor using a compression donut. Everything above this point is currently PVC.

I bought a short piece of 4" PVC to connect up the fittings and transition into the cast iron. When I went to cut it, I realized it was cellular core PVC DWV (it cut way too easy), which I have never used before.

Is this OK to use for these short transitions on the main stack? I am in Rochester, NY.

Thanks in advance for replies.

Yes it's OK. We call it foam core.
