Value Collection 888-060C Cpvc Pipe Nipple Sch 80 2.5in X 6in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 888-060C is a Schedule 80 CPVC threaded pipe nipple designed for use in pressurized plumbing and industrial piping systems. Measuring 2.5 inches in pipe size and 6 inches in length, this nipple is machined with threaded ends for direct connection to compatible fittings, valves, and pipe sections. CPVC construction provides resistance to corrosion, chlorine, and many chemical compounds, making it a reliable choice where standard PVC or metal pipe is not appropriate. Plumbers and pipefitters install these nipples as short connecting sections between threaded fittings in both new construction and retrofit applications. The gray color is standard for Schedule 80 CPVC.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems, as well as chemical handling and industrial piping where CPVC is specified. Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure capacity than Schedule 40, making it appropriate for systems operating at elevated pressures. Common install scenarios include branch connections, valve extensions, and close-coupled fitting assemblies in hot and cold water distribution lines or chemical feed systems.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure ratings compared to Schedule 40
• CPVC material resists corrosion, chlorine, and a broad range of chemicals
• Threaded on both ends for connection to standard NPT fittings and valves
• 2.5 inch nominal pipe size accommodates larger flow applications
• Gray color is standard for easy Schedule 80 identification on the job
• 6 inch length suits close-coupled and short-extension installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 80 CPVC threaded piping systems using 2.5 inch nominal pipe size connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements. Shut off water supply and relieve system pressure completely before removing existing fittings or installing this nipple. Use CPVC-rated thread sealant tape or compound on all threaded joints — do not use solvents or adhesives not approved for CPVC. Inspect threads carefully before assembly to avoid cross-threading, which can compromise the pressure integrity of the joint.
