Nibco CE02400 Pvdf Hex Plug 1-1/2 in Schedule 80 Mnpt

Product Description

The NIBCO CE02400 is a Schedule 80 PVDF hex plug designed to seal off threaded pipe ends in demanding industrial and chemical service applications. Constructed from polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), this fitting delivers excellent resistance to corrosive chemicals, UV exposure, and elevated temperatures where standard PVC or CPVC fittings are not suitable. The male NPT thread conforms to standard MIPT end connection requirements, allowing it to thread directly into female-threaded fittings, valves, or pipe ends. At 1-1/2 inches, the CE02400 is a frequently specified size in process piping, chemical feed systems, and high-purity fluid handling lines. Licensed plumbers and industrial pipefitters install this fitting during system construction or maintenance shutdowns.

The CE02400 is sized at 1-1/2 inches and is well suited for Schedule 80 thermoplastic piping systems used in chemical processing, water treatment, semiconductor fabrication, and industrial fluid handling applications. The PVDF material makes it appropriate for aggressive media including acids, bases, and organic solvents. It is commonly installed in both commercial and industrial settings where metallic fittings would corrode or contaminate the process stream. The MIPT connection type allows direct installation into any standard female NPT-threaded port of the same size.

Key Features

• PVDF construction resists corrosive chemicals, UV, and elevated service temperatures
• Schedule 80 wall thickness provides increased pressure rating over Schedule 40
• Male NPT thread conforms to MIPT standard for broad system compatibility
• Hex head design allows installation and removal with standard pipe wrenches or hex wrenches
• Meets ASTM D3222 material standard for PVDF plastic pipe fittings
• 1-1/2 inch size covers a common process and industrial piping diameter

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation plug for Schedule 80 PVDF thermoplastic piping systems using standard female NPT threaded connections at 1-1/2 inches.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified industrial pipefitters. Shut off flow and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any threaded plug. Apply a PTFE thread sealant tape or paste rated for use with PVDF and the specific process media before threading in the plug. Do not over-torque PVDF fittings, as the material is less forgiving than metal and can crack under excessive force; hand-tighten and use a wrench for only a moderate additional turn.
