Value Collection 886-060C Cpvc Threaded Pipe Nipple Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 886-060C is a Schedule 80 CPVC threaded pipe nipple designed for use in pressure piping systems where corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility are required. Constructed from chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC), it measures 1-1/2 inches in pipe size and 6 inches in length. The threaded ends allow for direct connection to fittings, valves, or other threaded components without additional adapters. At 0.74 pounds, it is lightweight and easy to handle during installation. This nipple is suited for plumbing, industrial process piping, and mechanical systems where standard PVC lacks the temperature or chemical resistance needed.

This nipple is a standard fit for residential and light commercial plumbing applications, hot and cold water distribution lines, and chemical handling systems where CPVC material is specified. Schedule 80 wall thickness provides additional pressure capacity compared to Schedule 40, making it appropriate for higher-demand service lines. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install this component in both new construction and retrofit work where threaded CPVC connections are required.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for increased pressure rating over Schedule 40
• CPVC construction offers superior heat and chemical resistance compared to standard PVC
• 1-1/2 inch pipe size with fully threaded ends on both sides
• 6-inch length suits short-run connections and offset applications
• Gray color coding consistent with Schedule 80 CPVC piping systems
• Lightweight at 0.74 pounds for easy single-hand installation in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for 1-1/2 inch Schedule 80 CPVC threaded piping systems. Compatible with standard NPT threaded CPVC fittings, valves, and couplings of the same pipe size and schedule.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC and local plumbing codes. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before removing any existing nipple or fitting. Use CPVC-rated thread sealant or tape on threaded joints — do not use solvents or adhesives not rated for CPVC. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as CPVC is more brittle than metal and can crack under excessive torque.
