Value Collection 883-035 Pvc Threaded Pipe Nipple Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 883-035 is a Schedule 80 PVC threaded pipe nipple designed for use in pressurized plumbing systems where corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility are required. Sized for 0.75 inch pipe and measuring 3.5 inches in length, this gray PVC nipple features NPT threads on both ends for standard threaded connections. Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure tolerance compared to Schedule 40, making it appropriate for demanding plumbing and industrial fluid-handling applications. Weighing 0.28 pounds, it is a lightweight alternative to steel or brass nipples in compatible service conditions. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems, irrigation assemblies, chemical distribution lines, and pool or spa piping where PVC is an approved material. The Schedule 80 rating and threaded ends allow integration into existing threaded PVC or thermoplastic piping systems. It is commonly used in close-coupled connections, bypass assemblies, and equipment tie-ins where a short rigid nipple is needed to bridge two threaded fittings or valves.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 PVC construction for higher pressure tolerance than Schedule 40
• Threaded both ends for standard NPT connection into fittings, valves, or equipment ports
• 0.75 inch pipe size with 3.5 inch face-to-face length for short-run or close-coupled installations
• Gray PVC material offers corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility in a range of fluid-handling environments
• Lightweight at 0.28 pounds, reducing load on threaded connections compared to metal nipples

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard component for 0.75 inch Schedule 80 threaded PVC piping systems using NPT-threaded fittings and connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Depressurize and drain the system before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply thread sealant tape or paste rated for use with PVC and the conveyed fluid. Do not over-torque PVC threaded connections, as PVC is susceptible to cracking under excessive mechanical stress.
