Ipex 59324 Cpvc Schedule 80 Nipple 1/2 X 4 Inch

Product Description

The IPEX 59324 is a Schedule 80 CPVC nipple fitting designed for use in pressurized plumbing systems where chemical resistance and thermal tolerance are critical. Manufactured from CPVC compound meeting ASTM D1784, this fitting measures 1/2 inch in diameter and 4 inches in overall length. It features male threaded connections on both ends and is injection molded in gray CPVC with a smooth interior wall that reduces pressure loss compared to conventional metal fittings. It is rated to 200 degrees F and listed for potable water service under NSF standards. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this type of fitting.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial potable water systems where CPVC Schedule 80 piping is specified. The 1/2-inch male-threaded-by-male-threaded configuration makes it a standard extension or close nipple for connecting valves, unions, adapters, and other threaded fittings within Schedule 80 CPVC assemblies. Its corrosion-resistant material construction supports long service life in both hot and cold water distribution lines without the corrosion concerns associated with metal alternatives.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before making or breaking any threaded connections. Use CPVC-compatible thread sealant or tape rated for potable water systems.
