Nibco CC07600 Poly Pipe Nipple Sch 80 1-1/2x4 in

Product Description

The NIBCO CC07600 is a Schedule 80 polypropylene threaded pipe nipple rated for demanding plumbing and industrial piping applications. Measuring 1-1/2 inches in pipe size and 4 inches in length, this black polypropylene nipple provides a corrosion-resistant, chemically tolerant connection between threaded fittings and pipe assemblies. The Schedule 80 wall thickness offers greater pressure capacity than Schedule 40, making it suitable for higher-pressure service runs. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this nipple as a short connector segment in fluid-handling systems where metal corrosion or chemical attack would shorten service life.

This nipple is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems, chemical processing lines, and industrial fluid-transfer piping where polypropylene's resistance to acids, bases, and many solvents is required. It is threaded on both ends for direct connection to standard threaded fittings, valves, and equipment ports. Typical applications include chemical feed lines, pool and spa equipment plumbing, irrigation headers, and general-purpose water service where plastic pipe is specified.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for increased pressure rating over Schedule 40
• Polypropylene construction resists corrosion, acids, bases, and many chemical solutions
• 1-1/2 inch pipe size with 4 inch overall length for short-run connections
• Threaded both ends for compatibility with standard NPT fittings and valves
• Black color for UV stability in exposed or semi-exposed installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for Schedule 80 polypropylene threaded piping systems using 1-1/2 inch NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter following applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing threaded nipples. Use PTFE thread tape or a thread sealant rated for use with plastic and the specific fluid being conveyed — do not overtighten, as polypropylene threads can crack under excessive torque. Avoid installing in systems where temperatures or pressures exceed the published Schedule 80 polypropylene ratings for the fluid service.
