Value Collection 16836 Cpvc Threaded Pipe Nipple 3in 3/4in 5pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 16836 is a CPVC threaded pipe nipple designed for use in plumbing systems where corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility are required. Measuring 3 inches in length with a 3/4-inch pipe size, this nipple is molded from chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC), a material rated for higher-temperature service than standard PVC. Both ends are threaded for connection to compatible CPVC or metal fittings. This part is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters in residential and light commercial applications. It is sold in a pack of 5 units.

CPVC threaded nipples like the 16836 are commonly used in hot and cold water distribution lines, chemical-handling piping, and fire suppression systems where plastic piping is permitted. The 3/4-inch pipe size is one of the most frequently specified sizes in residential supply lines and branch connections. Gray color finish is standard for CPVC piping components. This nipple is suitable for both new installation and repair or replacement work on existing CPVC systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC requirements for plastic piping systems. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any nipple. Use CPVC-rated thread sealant or tape rated for plastic fittings — do not use petroleum-based compounds that can degrade CPVC. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as CPVC is subject to cracking under excessive torque.
