Avonplast UPVC 1-1/2″ Tank Nipple

The Avonplast UPVC 1-1/2″ Tank Nipple serves as a crucial component in UPVC (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride) piping systems. Here’s a breakdown of its key features and functions:

• Material: Constructed from UPVC, a rigid and durable type of plastic renowned for its resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and degradation over time. UPVC is often favored for piping applications due to its lightweight properties and exceptional longevity.
• Design: The tank nipple is designed with male threads on both ends, enabling secure and leak-proof connections to female-threaded pipes or fittings. Its design facilitates the transfer of fluids between the UPVC pipe and the tank or other plumbing fixtures.
• Function: Primarily used to establish a connection point between a UPVC pipe and a tank or plumbing fixture, allowing fluids to flow between them while maintaining a sealed connection. This facilitates various fluid-handling processes in residential, commercial, and industrial settings.
• Installation: The installation process involves threading one end of the tank nipple into a female-threaded opening on the tank or plumbing fixture, while the other end is threaded into a female-threaded UPVC pipe or fitting. To ensure a tight and leak-proof seal, thread sealant or tape may be applied during installation.
• Applications: Suitable for a wide range of applications in residential, commercial, and industrial settings, including water storage tanks, chemical processing systems, and other fluid-handling systems where UPVC piping is utilized.
• Size: Designed to accommodate UPVC pipes with a nominal diameter of 1-1/2 inches, ensuring compatibility with standard-sized pipes and fittings.
• Corrosion Resistance: The UPVC material offers excellent resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and UV radiation, making it suitable for use in diverse environments and applications.

In summary, the Avonplast UPVC 1-1/2″ Tank Nipple provides a reliable and durable solution for establishing connections between UPVC pipes and tanks or plumbing fixtures. Its robust construction, threaded design, and corrosion-resistant properties make it an essential component in UPVC piping systems across various industries.
