Value Collection 883-040C Cpvc Threaded Pipe Nipple Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 883-040C is a Schedule 80 CPVC threaded pipe nipple designed for use in pressurized plumbing and fluid-handling systems. Molded from chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC), this nipple measures 3/4 inch pipe size and 4 inches in length. Schedule 80 wall thickness provides added pressure rating and mechanical strength compared to Schedule 40, making it suitable for demanding residential and light commercial applications. The gray color is standard for CPVC Schedule 80 fittings. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple to connect threaded fittings, valves, and equipment in hot and cold water distribution, chemical transfer, and industrial process lines.

This nipple is appropriate for systems where CPVC material is specified for its chemical resistance and elevated temperature tolerance. It fits standard 3/4 inch NPT threaded connections and is commonly used in residential hot and cold water supply lines, hydronic heating systems, and light industrial fluid systems. The 4-inch length suits close-quarter runs between fittings where a longer pipe section is not needed. It is sold individually.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for increased pressure rating over Schedule 40
• CPVC construction offers chemical resistance and handles elevated service temperatures
• 3/4 inch NPT threads on both ends for standard threaded fitting connections
• 4 inches overall length suits close-quarter installations
• Gray color standard for Schedule 80 CPVC fittings for easy material identification

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for 3/4 inch NPT threaded CPVC plumbing systems requiring Schedule 80 fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before installing or removing any threaded pipe nipple. Use CPVC-compatible thread sealant or PTFE tape on NPT threads — do not use sealants incompatible with CPVC, as they can cause stress cracking. Do not overtighten threaded connections; hand-tight plus one to two turns with a strap wrench is typical for CPVC threaded fittings.
