Value Collection 886-030C Cpvc Pipe Nipple Sch 80 1-1/2x3 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 886-030C is a Schedule 80 CPVC threaded pipe nipple designed for use in pressurized plumbing and industrial piping systems. Measuring 1-1/2 inches in pipe size and 3 inches in length, this nipple is molded from chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC), which provides higher temperature and pressure resistance than standard PVC. Both ends are threaded for direct connection to fittings, valves, or other threaded pipe components. The gray coloring is standard for Schedule 80 CPVC. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple in hot and cold water distribution, chemical transfer lines, and industrial process piping where metal corrosion is a concern.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications as well as industrial settings where elevated temperatures or corrosive fluids require a material upgrade from standard PVC. Schedule 80 wall thickness makes it appropriate for higher-pressure service compared to Schedule 40. It connects using standard NPT-compatible threaded fittings and is commonly installed in supply lines, branch connections, and equipment hookups requiring a short close nipple or extension between threaded components.

Key Features

• CPVC material handles higher temperatures and pressures than standard PVC
• Schedule 80 wall thickness for increased pressure rating versus Schedule 40
• 1-1/2 inches pipe size x 3 inches length for compact threaded connections
• Threaded both ends for direct connection to standard NPT fittings
• Gray color standard for Schedule 80 CPVC identification

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard installation component for Schedule 80 CPVC threaded piping systems using 1-1/2 inches nominal pipe size connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for CPVC must be used on all threaded connections. Do not use petroleum-based compounds or solvents not approved for CPVC, as they can degrade the material. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded pipe component.
