It measures 4 inches in length with a 2-1\/2 inch diameter and features male pipe thread (MPT) on both ends. The SCH 80 wall thickness provides a pressure rating of 125 psi, making it suitable for higher-demand applications where standard Schedule 40 fittings are not adequate. Manufactured from dark gray PVC, this nipple offers corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility for a wide range of fluid-handling systems. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting where a short threaded extension or close nipple run is needed between fittings, valves, or equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is used in residential, commercial, and light industrial plumbing systems where SCH 80 PVC is specified. Typical applications include chemical drainage lines, irrigation manifolds, pool and spa equipment connections, and industrial process piping. The 2-1\/2-8 thread specification conforms to ASTM F1498 dimensional standards, ensuring consistent fit with standard NPT-threaded fittings and valves. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters handle installation in systems requiring Schedule 80 pressure ratings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 PVC construction rated to 125 psi for higher-pressure threaded applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-1\/2 inch MPT on both ends for straight-through threaded connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4 inch overall length suits close-coupled or short-run piping layouts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDark gray PVC material resists corrosion and common chemical exposure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread specification 2-1\/2-8 conforms to ASTM F1498 dimensional standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.47 pounds for easy handling and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 80 PVC threaded piping systems using 2-1\/2 inch NPT connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing codes. Depressurize and drain the system fully before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, and hand-tighten followed by wrench tightening  -  avoid over-torquing PVC threads, as this can crack the fitting. Do not use this fitting with incompatible solvents or fluids that degrade PVC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: MPT x MPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2-8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: SCH 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 125 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Dark Gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimension Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM F1498\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.47 pounds\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: MIDLAND INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 55182\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67950567457074,"sku":"55182","price":16.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/32f92c6940bca68dc2108e5c9e601dab.jpg?v=1791721551","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-55182-pvc-pipe-nipple-2-1-2-in-sch-80","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
