Measuring 1\/2 inch nominal diameter by 1-1\/2 inch length, this nipple features IPS (iron pipe size) dimensions and NPT (National Pipe Thread) threading on both ends. Its Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure tolerance compared to Schedule 40, making it a reliable choice in demanding residential and light commercial plumbing applications. The fitting meets ASTM D1785 specifications, confirming dimensional and material conformance to recognized industry standards. Plumbers and pipefitters use this nipple as a straightforward connector between threaded fittings, valves, and piping runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis PVC nipple is suited for cold water supply lines, irrigation systems, chemical distribution, and other liquid-conveyance applications where corrosion resistance is a priority. Its Schedule 80 rating makes it appropriate for installations that require a heavier wall than standard Schedule 40 fittings can provide. The NPT thread pattern ensures compatibility with standard pipe fittings, valves, and equipment connections commonly found in residential, commercial, and light industrial piping systems. Apply pipe thread compound or sealing tape to the threaded portion before installation to ensure a leak-free joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 PVC construction provides heavier wall thickness and increased pressure tolerance versus Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNPT (National Pipe Thread) threads on both ends for compatibility with standard threaded fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIPS (iron pipe size) dimensioning for consistent fit in standard pipe systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ASTM D1785 specifications for PVC plastic pipe dimensional and material requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrosion-resistant PVC material suitable for water and compatible liquid transport\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard Schedule 80 PVC nipple for use with NPT-threaded fittings, valves, and piping in residential and commercial plumbing, irrigation, and liquid-distribution systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters in accordance with applicable plumbing codes, including the IPC. Always shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing threaded fittings. Apply pipe thread sealant compound or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly to prevent leaks. Do not overtighten PVC threaded fittings, as excessive force can crack the fitting body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT (National Pipe Thread)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Sizing Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: IPS (Iron Pipe Size)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eASTM Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: D1785\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.001 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: BK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 403-015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"B\u0026K","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51342953349426,"sku":"403-015","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310549755.jpg?v=1782011742","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bk-403-015-schedule-80-pvc-nipple-1-2-x-1-1-2-inch-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
