Rated for Schedule 80 service, this fitting handles higher-pressure applications where a standard Schedule 40 fitting would be undersized. The black polypropylene construction resists corrosion and chemical attack, making it suitable for water treatment, chemical storage, and plumbing systems where metal fittings would degrade. At 0.34 pounds, the fitting is lightweight and easy to handle during installation. Licensed plumbers and trade technicians are the typical installers of this component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tank adapter is used where a threaded pipe connection must be made directly to a tank wall in residential or commercial applications. Common installations include water softener tanks, chemical dosing tanks, pressure vessels, and irrigation storage tanks. The FPT x FPT end connections accept male-threaded pipe or fittings on both sides, allowing flexible integration into existing threaded piping runs. Its black color and polypropylene material make it appropriate for both indoor utility and outdoor environments where UV and chemical resistance are priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 rated for higher-pressure service compared to Schedule 40 fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolypropylene construction resists corrosion, chemicals, and moisture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFPT x FPT end connections on both sides for versatile threaded hookup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack color finish standard for Schedule 80 polypropylene fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.34 pounds for easy single-technician handling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1-1\/4 inch threaded tank and piping connections in Schedule 80 polypropylene piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC and local plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any tank fittings. Use PTFE thread tape or an approved thread sealant on all male threads before assembly — do not use pipe dope compounds that are incompatible with polypropylene. Avoid over-torquing plastic fittings, as excess force can crack the fitting body or tank boss.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tank Adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polypropylene\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: FPT x FPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.34 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NIBCO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: CC08970\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NIBCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538917261618,"sku":"CC08970","price":233.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1fa207a9ce992cea5a065476b4c8587e.jpg?v=1785829562","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nibco-cc08970-tank-adapter-1-1-4-in-polypropylene-sch-80","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
