Nibco CN00360 Polypropylene Coupling 3/4 in Sch 80 Fpt

Product Description

The NIBCO CN00360 is a Schedule 80 polypropylene pipe coupling designed to join 3/4-inch female-threaded pipe sections in industrial and commercial piping systems. Built from polypropylene, this coupling offers solid chemical resistance, making it suitable for applications where metal fittings are not appropriate. The FPT x FPT end connections accept standard male-threaded pipe on both sides, allowing for straightforward inline installation. At 0.09 pounds, the fitting is lightweight and easy to handle on the job. Plumbers and pipefitters working with plastic piping systems will find this coupling a reliable, code-appropriate choice for Schedule 80 service.

This coupling is intended for use in residential, commercial, and light industrial piping installations where polypropylene plastic fittings are specified. Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure capability compared to Schedule 40, making it appropriate for higher-demand service lines. Typical applications include chemical drainage, process piping, and irrigation systems where corrosion resistance and thread integrity are required.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for increased pressure rating compared to Schedule 40
• Polypropylene construction provides chemical and corrosion resistance
• FPT x FPT end connections accept standard male-threaded pipe on both ends
• 3/4-inch fitting size suits common residential and commercial line sizes
• Lightweight at 0.09 pounds for easy handling and installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 80 polypropylene piping systems using 3/4-inch FPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before working on any pipe connection. Apply an appropriate thread sealant tape or compound rated for plastic fittings to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded plastic fittings, as excessive torque can crack the fitting body.
