Value Collection 886-035 Pvc Pipe Nipple 1-1/2 in Schedule 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 886-035 is a Schedule 80 PVC threaded pipe nipple designed for use in pressurized piping systems where corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility are required. Measuring 1-1/2 inches in pipe diameter and 3-1/2 inches in length, this gray PVC nipple features NPT-style threads on both ends for secure, leak-resistant connections. Its Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure-bearing capacity compared to Schedule 40, making it suitable for more demanding fluid-handling applications. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting to extend or connect runs in PVC piping systems.

This nipple is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation, chemical distribution, and industrial fluid-handling systems where PVC is a code-accepted material. The 1-1/2 inch nominal size fits standard Schedule 80 PVC fittings of the same diameter. It is well-suited for cold water service, drainage tie-ins, and low-pressure process lines where metal pipe would be subject to corrosion.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for increased pressure rating versus Schedule 40
• 1-1/2 inch nominal pipe diameter with 3-1/2 inch overall length
• PVC construction resists corrosion, rust, and many common chemicals
• Gray color consistent with standard Schedule 80 PVC system components
• Threaded on both ends for straightforward installation with compatible fittings

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or new-installation nipple for Schedule 80 PVC threaded piping systems using 1-1/2 inch nominal pipe size fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or local equivalents. Apply thread sealant tape or an approved PVC-compatible thread compound before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded PVC connections, as PVC threads can crack under excessive torque. Shut off and depressurize the system before removing or installing any pipe nipple.
