Boshart 882005 PVC Schedule 80 Close Nipple

Boshart 882005 PVC Schedule 80 Close Nipple

The Boshart 882005 is a PVC Schedule 80 close nipple built for rough-in plumbing runs where two threaded fittings need to be joined with minimal space between them. Molded from PVC and manufactured to Schedule 80 wall thickness, this close nipple gives installers a heavier-duty threaded connector than standard Schedule 40 nipples for applications that call for added durability at the connection point. This is a family listing available in 1/2" and 1" sizes, letting contractors and distributors match the close nipple to the exact threaded fitting size required on the job. It is supplied 50 pieces per package, making it a practical bulk stock item for plumbing contractors, wholesalers, and maintenance crews who regularly need close nipples on hand for service calls and new installs.
