It features Slip x SR FIPT end connections, allowing one socket end to accept a plain pipe end and the other to accept a standard reinforced female iron pipe thread. Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure capacity than Schedule 40, making this coupling appropriate for more demanding flow and pressure conditions. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in corrosive-fluid, chemical-process, and industrial water systems where polypropylene's chemical resistance and lightweight properties are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is used in commercial and industrial piping installations where Schedule 80 polypropylene is specified for resistance to acids, bases, and other corrosive media. The 3-inch size suits main distribution lines in process piping, chemical handling, and industrial water treatment applications. The SR FIPT thread end accommodates standard threaded connections into equipment or valve bodies, while the slip end allows solvent-welded or fusion connections depending on system design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 polypropylene construction for elevated pressure ratings versus Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlip x SR FIPT end connections for flexible integration with threaded and plain-end pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-inch fitting size for main distribution and process piping lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolypropylene material provides broad chemical resistance to acids, bases, and corrosive fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight construction reduces load on pipe hangers and support structures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 3-inch Schedule 80 polypropylene piping systems using Slip x SR FIPT end connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Depressurize and drain the piping system fully before cutting into any existing line. Solvent cementing or fusion methods appropriate for polypropylene must be used on the slip end — do not use standard PVC cement on polypropylene fittings. Verify thread engagement and seal on the SR FIPT end before returning the system to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Socket Coupling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 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: Slip x SR FIPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6 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: CN00250\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NIBCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543386095922,"sku":"CN00250","price":138.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0b538a40810eedb3cea5617b75f01af7_e8a5e670-7da5-40d9-8ba5-6dfaf8010484.jpg?v=1785917619","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nibco-cn00250-socket-coupling-3-in-polypropylene-sch-80","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
