Aqualine PPN-40-60PG Sch 80 Pvc Victaulic Nipple 4x6 in

Product Description

The AQUALINE PPN-40-60PG is a Schedule 80 PVC nipple with a plain end by grooved end configuration, sized at 4 inches by 6 inches in length. It is designed for use in pressure piping systems where PVC construction is preferred for corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility. The grooved end mates with Victaulic-style couplings, allowing fast mechanical joint assembly without threading or solvent welding at that connection point. The plain end accepts standard solvent-cement socket fittings. This nipple is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters in industrial, commercial, and pool or water treatment piping systems.

This nipple is suited for Schedule 80 PVC piping systems in commercial and industrial applications, including chemical process lines, irrigation headers, pool and aquatic facility plumbing, and water treatment plant distribution. The 4-inch diameter and 6-inch length make it a transition or spool piece between grooved mechanical coupling assemblies and solvent-welded socket fittings. Its Schedule 80 wall thickness provides added pressure capacity compared to Schedule 40 fittings.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 PVC construction for higher pressure ratings and greater wall thickness than Schedule 40
• Plain end by groove end configuration supports hybrid joining: solvent weld on one side, mechanical coupling on the other
• 4-inch nominal pipe diameter accommodates high-volume flow applications
• 6-inch face length functions as a spool or transition nipple between system components
• PVC material offers broad chemical resistance suitable for pool, irrigation, and industrial service
• Grooved end is compatible with Victaulic-style mechanical couplings for tool-based assembly

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for 4-inch Schedule 80 PVC piping systems using Victaulic-style grooved mechanical couplings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter familiar with Schedule 80 PVC piping and grooved mechanical coupling systems. Depressurize and drain the line completely before cutting into any existing piping. Apply solvent cement to the plain end connection per manufacturer instructions and applicable plumbing code, and allow full cure time before pressurizing. Follow the grooved coupling manufacturer torque and gasket seating procedures for the mechanical joint end.
