What the thing is that the person has stated above is called a lateral. Two entirely different things.
A sanitary tee fitting is used in plumbing systems to connect a horizontal pipe to a vertical pipe at a 90-degree angle, while a wye fitting is used to connect a horizontal pipe to a vertical pipe at a 45-degree angle. The wye fitting is better for maintaining smooth flow in the plumbing system compared to the sanitary tee.
There is no such thing as a WYE pipe there is a WYE FITTING that allows a connection at a 45 DEG angle for either better venting or drainageThe above answer is not totally correct.
