Manufactured from PVC compound meeting ASTM D1784, D1785, and D2467, this nipple carries a 140 degrees F temperature rating and meets NSF standards for potable water service. Injection-molded construction places material reinforcement uniformly in stress concentration areas, giving the fitting improved pressure handling capability over standard Schedule 40 fittings. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple in both above-ground and in-wall assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis close nipple is suited for residential and light commercial potable water systems, irrigation assemblies, and chemical distribution lines where PVC Schedule 80 pipe is specified. The gray finish and 1-inch male threaded by male threaded end configuration allow it to connect two female-threaded fittings, valves, or equipment ports in tight spaces where a standard length nipple would not fit. Its smooth interior walls reduce pressure drop and support higher flow volume compared to metal alternatives of the same nominal size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 PVC construction for higher pressure ratings than Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoth ends are 1-inch male threaded for direct connection between female-threaded components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets NSF standards for potable water applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e140 degrees F temperature rating suitable for hot and cold water systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmooth interior walls minimize pressure loss and support full flow volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifetime limited warranty backed by the manufacturer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard component for 1-inch Schedule 80 PVC threaded piping systems, including potable water distribution assemblies where NSF-listed fittings are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the applicable local plumbing code and IPC requirements. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Use PTFE thread tape or an approved thread sealant on male threads; do not overtighten, as PVC threads can crack under excessive torque. Avoid contact with solvents or chemicals incompatible with PVC during and after installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM D1784, D1785, D2467\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize A\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize B\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male Threaded x Male Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplicable Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NSF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProcess\u003c\/strong\u003e: Injection Molded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Potable Water System\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25 per inner pack, 300 per master carton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lifetime Limited\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: IPEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36449\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IPEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51267999793458,"sku":"36449","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/308913606.jpg?v=1780696536","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ipex-36449-pvc-schedule-80-close-nipple-1-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
