Manufactured from chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC), this nipple carries a design stress rating of 2,000 psi at 73 degrees F and a maximum service temperature of 200 degrees F under continuous pressure. Short-term exposure to boiling water at 212 degrees F is also tolerated. The 1-1\/4-inch diameter and 4-inch length make it a standard close nipple for residential and light commercial plumbing, industrial process, and hot and cold water distribution systems. Plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for hot and cold water supply lines, industrial fluid handling, and chemical distribution applications where metal corrosion is a concern. CPVC Schedule 80 fittings and pipe are common in commercial plumbing, fire suppression, and industrial process lines that require higher pressure ratings than Schedule 40. The male NPT threads on both ends accept standard female threaded couplings, adapters, valves, and other FPT fittings. It is appropriate for above-ground and in-wall installations where CPVC is code-approved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 CPVC construction rated to 2,000 psi design stress at 73 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum continuous service temperature of 200 degrees F under pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTolerates occasional exposure to boiling water at 212 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMale NPT threads on both ends connect two FPT fittings without additional adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWill not rust, pit, scale, or corrode on interior or exterior surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLower embodied energy than equivalent carbon steel or steel alloy pipe sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard fitting for Schedule 80 CPVC piping systems using 1-1\/4-inch nominal pipe size with NPT-threaded connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and ASTM standards for CPVC pressure piping. Shut off and depressurize the supply line and allow it to cool before removing any existing fittings. Use CPVC-compatible thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for plastic pipe threads — do not use sealants formulated for metal pipe only, as they may degrade CPVC. Hand-tighten first, then snug with a strap wrench; avoid excessive force, which can crack threaded CPVC fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: CPVC (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: Schedule 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male NPT both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign Stress\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2,000 psi at 73 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Service Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200 degrees F under pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntermittent Temperature Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 212 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 9861173\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IPEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51268104028466,"sku":"9861173","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/308913763.jpg?v=1780699155","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ipex-9861173-cpvc-schedule-80-nipple-1-1-4-x-4-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
