Value Collection 882-020C Cpvc Pipe Nipple 1/2 in Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 882-020C is a Schedule 80 CPVC threaded pipe nipple designed for use in pressurized plumbing systems where chemical resistance and durability are required. Measuring 1/2 inch in pipe size and 2 inches in length, this nipple features NPT threads on both ends for straightforward connection to threaded fittings and valves. Molded from chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC), it offers greater temperature and pressure tolerance than standard PVC. The gray color is standard for Schedule 80 CPVC material. At 0.24 pounds, it is lightweight and easy to handle during installation. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this type of fitting.

Schedule 80 CPVC pipe nipples are used in residential and commercial plumbing, industrial process piping, and chemical handling systems where elevated temperatures or corrosive media are present. The 2-inch length makes this nipple suitable for close-coupled connections between valves, unions, tees, and other threaded fittings in tight spaces. It is commonly found in hot and cold water supply lines, chemical distribution systems, and fire suppression support piping where CPVC is code-approved.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the water supply before beginning any work on the pipe system. Use CPVC-rated thread sealant or PTFE tape on NPT threads — do not use standard PVC solvent cement on threaded joints. Avoid over-tightening threaded connections, as CPVC fittings can crack under excessive torque.
