The 1" and Larger Schedule 80 PVC Nipples provide the structural integrity needed for high-capacity water lines. Designed for use in filter manifolds, pump stations, and main headers, these gray PVC fittings feature thicker walls than standard Schedule 40 options, offering superior resistance to pressure surges and physical impact.
Available in diameters from 1" up to 2" and lengths ranging from "Close" to 12" risers, these are essential irrigation fittings for professional installers. Whether you are plumbing a commercial greenhouse or a large agricultural field, these UV-resistant nipples ensure a secure, threaded connection. Don't forget to use Thread Sealant Tape on all male threads to prevent leaks.

Proper installation is critical for large diameter fittings.
Step 1: Prep Threads
Clean the threads of both the nipple and the receiving fitting. Apply Thread Sealant Tape to the male threads. For 1-1/2" and 2" sizes, verify if your system requires paste over tape (check local codes).
Step 2: Align
Carefully align the nipple with the female fitting. Large diameter PVC is easy to cross-thread if forced.
Step 3: Tighten
Hand tighten until snug. Use a large strap wrench or pipe wrench for the final turn. Caution: Do not overtighten, as the leverage from large wrenches can crack female fittings.
Ensure size matching:
