Value Collection 884-025 Pvc Pipe Nipple 1 in Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 884-025 is a Schedule 80 PVC threaded pipe nipple designed for use in pressurized plumbing and industrial piping systems. Measuring 1 inch in pipe size and 2.5 inches in length, this nipple features NPT threads on both ends for secure, leak-resistant connections. The gray PVC construction resists corrosion, chemical exposure, and moisture, making it well suited for water supply, irrigation, chemical handling, and industrial process lines. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting during new construction, system modifications, and repair work where a short, close-coupled threaded connection is required.

This nipple is appropriate for residential and commercial plumbing systems, irrigation manifolds, pool and spa plumbing, and light industrial process piping. The Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure tolerance than Schedule 40, making it a preferred choice in applications where elevated working pressure or mechanical impact resistance is a factor. It connects standard 1-inch threaded PVC fittings, valves, and manifolds.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure tolerance compared to Schedule 40
• 1-inch pipe size with NPT threaded ends for standard fitment
• 2.5-inch overall length for close-coupled connections
• Gray PVC material resists corrosion, chemicals, and moisture
• Lightweight at 0.31 pounds — easy to handle and inventory

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component compatible with standard 1-inch NPT threaded PVC fittings, valves, couplings, and manifolds used in residential and commercial plumbing and irrigation systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Depressurize and drain the system before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply a compatible thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly — do not use pipe dope compounds that are not rated for PVC. Hand-tighten first, then use a strap wrench to avoid over-torquing, which can crack PVC fittings.
