B38;K Llc 507-020 Pvc Schedule 80 Nipple 1.5x2 in

Product Description

The B38;K LLC 507-020 is a Schedule 80 PVC nipple used to connect threaded pipe fittings in pressurized plumbing systems. Measuring 1.5 inches in diameter and 2 inches in length, this close nipple provides a rigid, short-run threaded connection between valves, pumps, filters, and other NPT-threaded components. Schedule 80 wall thickness gives it greater pressure tolerance and impact resistance compared to Schedule 40 pipe. It is installed by licensed plumbers and journeyman pipefitters in residential, commercial, and light industrial applications. The part weighs approximately 0.1 pounds and ships in minimum quantities of 10 units.

This nipple is suited for use in pump discharge lines, filter manifolds, pool and spa plumbing, irrigation systems, and general water service piping. Schedule 80 PVC is commonly selected where additional wall strength is required or where the fitting will be exposed and subject to incidental contact. It is appropriate for cold and ambient-temperature water service within the pressure ratings of the material.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure tolerance versus Schedule 40
• 1.5-inch nominal diameter with 2-inch length for compact threaded connections
• PVC construction resists corrosion and chemical attack in water service applications
• Standard NPT threads for compatibility with threaded valves, pumps, and fittings
• Lightweight at 0.1 pounds for easy handling in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard supply fitting for Schedule 80 PVC threaded piping systems using 1.5-inch nominal NPT connections in plumbing, pool, and pump applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Hand-tighten first, then use strap wrenches or channel-lock pliers to snug — avoid over-torquing PVC threads, which can crack the fitting.
