Measuring 0.75 inches in diameter by 12 inches in length, this nipple is manufactured to IPS (iron pipe size) standards and threaded to NPT (National Pipe Thread) specifications. It meets ASTM D1785 requirements, confirming dimensional and material compliance for Schedule 80 PVC pipe fittings. The heavier wall thickness of Schedule 80 construction provides greater pressure tolerance compared to Schedule 40. Plumbers and pipefitters install these nipples as short pipe extensions or connectors between fittings in both above-ground and in-wall applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems, irrigation lines, chemical handling setups, and industrial fluid transport where PVC is an approved material. Because Schedule 80 PVC offers a thicker wall profile, it is commonly specified in applications requiring added mechanical strength or moderate pressure ratings. Pipe thread compound or sealing tape must be applied to the threaded portion prior to assembly to ensure a leak-free joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 PVC construction for heavier wall thickness and increased pressure capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIPS dimensioning with NPT threading for compatibility with standard pipe fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASTM D1785 specifications for Schedule 80 PVC pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.75 inch x 12 inch size suits a wide range of extension and connection applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for water, aqueous solutions, and other liquids compatible with PVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit nipple for Schedule 80 PVC piping systems using 0.75 inch NPT threaded fittings and valves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters. Always shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before disassembling existing connections. Apply pipe thread sealant compound or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the joint — do not over-tighten PVC threaded connections, as PVC is susceptible to thread cracking under excessive torque. Verify that the fluid being transported is chemically compatible with PVC before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: Schedule 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches (3\/4 in.
