CPVC Schedule 80 Pipe Nipple 3 Inch

This Spears CPVC pipe nipple is manufactured to Schedule 80 specifications for industrial and commercial plumbing systems. The fitting handles potable water, non-potable water, acids and bases within its rated temperature and pressure range. Gray CPVC construction provides chemical resistance for demanding fluid transfer applications. The nipple measures 12 inches overall with male NPT threads on one end and threaded both ends configuration.

Suited For Corrosive Fluid Lines Not For Gas Service

This nipple suits installers building Schedule 80 CPVC systems carrying water, acids or bases up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit and 420 psi. It fits applications requiring 3 inch nominal pipe size with threaded connections on both ends. Buyers needing pressurized gas distribution, compressed air lines or vacuum service should look elsewhere. The material is not rated for those media or for temperatures below 40 degrees Fahrenheit.

Verify Schedule 80 Mating Fittings

Confirm that adjoining fittings, valves and flanges are also Schedule 80 CPVC to maintain pressure integrity across the joint. Use a thread sealant compatible with CPVC and the specific fluid being conveyed. Check that the system design accommodates the 3 1/2 inch outside diameter and 2 7/8 inch inside diameter within available space. Ensure operating conditions stay within the 40 to 200 degrees Fahrenheit range and do not exceed 420 psi.

Questions about this item

What size Schedule 80 CPVC fittings and thread sealant do I need to connect the 3 in MNPT ends?

Use 3 in nominal Schedule 80 CPVC sockets or threaded fittings with CPVC-compatible thread sealant; the nipple’s 3 1/2 in OD and 2 7/8 in ID match Schedule 80 dimensions.

Can this 12 in nipple thread directly into my existing metal pipe threads?

Yes, the MNPT threads mate with standard NPT female threads; however, CPVC-to-metal joints require proper sealant and should stay within the 40 to 200 Degrees F and 420 psi limits.

How do I verify the nipple is holding pressure after installation?

Pressurise the system up to 420 psi at temperatures between 40 and 200 Degrees F; no leaks at the threaded joints or along the gray CPVC body confirms correct assembly.
