Astral CPVC Plain Hex Nipple

The Astral CPVC Plain Hex Nipple serves as a vital component in plumbing systems, facilitating the connection of two CPVC pipes or fittings with male-threaded ends. Here's a detailed description: Constructed with high-quality CPVC material, the hex nipple boasts excellent chemical resistance and durability, ensuring its suitability for various hot and cold water applications. Its design features a hexagonal shape in the middle, providing a convenient surface for tightening with a wrench, ensuring a secure and leak-proof connection. One end of the hex nipple is plain (unthreaded), designed to be solvent welded or glued directly onto a CPVC pipe or fitting. Meanwhile, the other end features male threads, allowing it to be screwed into a female-threaded CPVC component with ease. This versatile design makes the Astral CPVC Plain Hex Nipple suitable for a wide range of plumbing tasks, including extending pipe lengths, connecting different pipe sizes, or transitioning between threaded and plain CPVC fittings. During installation, users can simply solvent weld or glue the plain end of the hex nipple onto a CPVC pipe or fitting, ensuring a tight and reliable seal. The threaded end can then be securely attached to a female-threaded component using appropriate thread sealant or tape to prevent leaks.
