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.

Key Features

  • Trade Size Range: Available in 1/2" and 1" sizes to fit a range of rough-in and repair applications.
  • Close Nipple Design: Short overall length allows two female-threaded fittings to be joined directly together with minimal clearance, useful in tight rough-in spaces.
  • Durable Construction: Molded from PVC to Schedule 80 wall thickness for a heavier-duty threaded connector than standard Schedule 40 nipples.
  • Threaded Connection: Male threads on each end thread directly into female PVC fittings, valves, or adapters without solvent welding.
  • Bulk Packaging: Supplied 50 pieces per package for contractors and distributors who need consistent close-nipple stock on hand across both available sizes.
  • Domestic Manufacturing: Manufactured in the United States.

Boshart 882-005 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What sizes does the Boshart 882005 PVC close nipple come in, and what are the part numbers?
Two trade sizes: 1/2 inch, part number 882-005, and 1 inch, part number 884-005. Both are PVC Schedule 80 close nipples with male threads on each end.
2) Do I need to solvent weld this PVC nipple, or does it thread in?
It threads in. Both ends carry male threads that go directly into female-threaded PVC fittings, valves, or adapters, so no primer or solvent cement is needed at either end. Use pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape as you would on any threaded plastic joint.
3) What is a close nipple actually used for on a rough-in?
A close nipple is threaded nearly its full length so two female-threaded fittings can be screwed together back to back with almost no pipe showing between them. It is what you reach for when a valve has to sit tight against an adapter or a tee and there is no room for a cut length of threaded pipe. On this Boshart part that job is done in PVC rather than metal, for threaded plastic runs.
4) Why choose a Schedule 80 PVC nipple instead of Schedule 40?
Schedule 80 has a thicker wall than Schedule 40 at the same trade size, which leaves more material behind the threads. That matters on a nipple, because threading cuts into the wall and a close nipple is threaded end to end. The Boshart 882005 is molded to Schedule 80 wall thickness for that reason. Note the thicker wall also means a smaller inside diameter than Schedule 40, so on long or high-flow runs that restriction is worth accounting for.
5) How many Boshart 882005 close nipples come in a package?
They ship 50 pieces per package, in both the 1/2 inch and the 1 inch size. That is bulk stocking quantity, aimed at plumbing contractors, wholesalers, and maintenance crews who want close nipples on the truck rather than ordering per job.
6) Are these PVC nipples made in the USA?
Yes, Boshart manufactures them in the United States, in both offered sizes. That is the detail government, education, and other buyers working under domestic-content purchasing rules usually need on the submittal.
7) Does this PVC nipple carry a Prop 65 warning?
Yes. A California Prop 65 warning applies for vinyl chloride, which is standard for PVC fittings. Institutional and MRO buyers in California should carry that through on their own documentation.
