Spears PVC Schedule 80 Nipple
This Spears Schedule 80 PVC pipe nipple connects two female-threaded fittings in a 1-1/2 inch nominal pipe system. It is rated for both potable and non-potable water applications. The gray fitting features male NPT threads on both ends for a secure joint. Builders and maintenance crews use it for standard plumbing runs.
Pressure and Temperature Limits
The nipple handles a maximum operating pressure of 235 psi at 140 degrees Fahrenheit. The minimum operating temperature is 40 degrees Fahrenheit. These limits define the safe envelope for water service in residential or light commercial systems. Exceeding either value risks fitting failure or joint leaks.
Verify Thread Size and Schedule
Confirm that the mating fittings use 1-1/2 inch NPT threads and are also Schedule 80 rated. The overall length is 2 inches, so measure the gap between existing components to ensure proper engagement. Using mismatched schedules or thread types will prevent a pressure-tight seal.

Questions about this item
Should I choose this 2 inch overall length nipple or a longer one for my Schedule 80 PVC system?
Select the 2 inch overall length when you need a short, rigid connection between two female-threaded fittings; choose a longer nipple only if the gap between those fittings exceeds this length.
What does the 235 psi maximum operating pressure mean once the nipple is installed in a plumbing line?
The joint can safely handle up to 235 psi internal pressure at temperatures up to 140 degrees F; pressure capacity decreases as fluid temperature rises toward that limit.
How does the 1-1/2 inch NPT male thread on each end determine what fittings I can connect?
Each end mates with any Schedule 80 PVC female NPT fitting — such as couplings, elbows or valves — that is also rated for 1-1/2 inch nominal pipe size.
