Value Collection 887-030C Cpvc Pipe Nipple Sch 80 2x3 Inch

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 887-030C is a Schedule 80 CPVC threaded pipe nipple designed for use in pressure piping systems where corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility are required. Measuring 2 inches in pipe size and 3 inches in length, this nipple features male NPT threads on both ends and is molded from chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) for higher temperature and pressure service compared to standard PVC. It is gray in color and conforms to Schedule 80 wall thickness specifications. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in industrial, commercial, and residential systems handling hot water, chemicals, or corrosive fluids.

This nipple is suited for Schedule 80 CPVC piping systems in applications such as chemical processing lines, hot and cold domestic water distribution, industrial fluid transfer, and fire suppression systems. The 2-inch pipe size and 3-inch close nipple length make it a practical choice for connecting valves, pumps, unions, and other threaded fittings with minimal exposed thread. It is commonly used wherever a short rigid connection is needed between two threaded female fittings.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure ratings compared to Schedule 40
• CPVC material provides superior heat and chemical resistance versus standard PVC
• NPT threaded on both ends for standard pipe connections
• 2-inch pipe size x 3-inch overall length for compact installations
• Gray color consistent with Schedule 80 CPVC piping systems for easy identification

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for Schedule 80 CPVC threaded piping systems using 2-inch nominal pipe size components.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and ASTM standards for CPVC piping. Shut off system pressure and drain the line completely before removing or installing threaded nipples. Use CPVC-compatible thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for CPVC on all threaded joints. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as CPVC is more brittle than metal pipe and can crack under excessive force.
