Value Collection 883-060 Pvc Pipe Nipple 3/4 in Sch 80 6 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 883-060 is a Schedule 80 PVC threaded pipe nipple designed for use in plumbing, irrigation, and industrial piping systems. Machined with NPT threads on both ends, this nipple provides a secure, pressure-rated connection between fittings, valves, and pipe sections. At 6 inches in length and 3/4 inch nominal pipe size, it fits standard threaded fittings without modification. The gray PVC construction resists corrosion and chemical attack, making it well-suited for water service, chemical handling lines, and low-pressure fluid distribution. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers for this type of fitting in commercial and residential applications.

This nipple is intended for use in Schedule 80 PVC piping systems where threaded connections are required. Typical applications include potable water supply lines, irrigation systems, chemical distribution, and industrial process piping where corrosion resistance is a priority over metal pipe. The 3/4 inch size is among the most common in residential and light commercial plumbing runs, fitting standard threaded tees, elbows, unions, and ball valves. It is not rated for use in high-temperature thermoplastic applications or above its pressure-temperature derating curve.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure rating than Schedule 40 at the same nominal size
• NPT threads on both ends for direct connection to standard threaded PVC fittings and valves
• Gray PVC construction resists corrosion, rust, and a broad range of chemicals
• 6 inches overall length suits close-quarter runs and offset connections
• Lightweight at 0.02 pounds — easy to handle and transport in bulk

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install component for Schedule 80 PVC threaded piping systems using 3/4 inch nominal pipe size fittings and valves.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off and depressurize the affected line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply a thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for PVC and the fluid being conveyed — do not overtighten, as PVC threads can crack under excessive torque. Verify that the system pressure and temperature do not exceed the pressure-temperature rating for Schedule 80 PVC at the installation site.
