Description
Schedule 80 CPVC Nipple TOE
Schedule 80 CPVC Nipple TOE provides a straight piping connection with one male-threaded end and one plain end. The threaded-one-end configuration allows the nipple to connect to a compatible female-threaded component while leaving the opposite end available for the appropriate compatible CPVC connection method.
The Schedule 80 CPVC nipple TOE combines Schedule 80 CPVC construction with a single threaded interface for mixed-end piping arrangements. Selection should account for nominal size, nipple length, threaded-end compatibility, plain-end connection requirements, and proper CPVC installation procedures.

Nipple Design
The nipple design provides a straight section of Schedule 80 CPVC with different connection styles at each end. One end is male-threaded while the opposite end remains plain for the appropriate compatible CPVC joining arrangement.
The nominal size and required nipple length should be confirmed before ordering. The threaded and plain ends should also be identified before installation so the nipple is oriented correctly.
Threaded One End
The TOE configuration provides one male-threaded connection for an appropriately sized compatible female-threaded component. The opposite end remains plain rather than carrying a second threaded connection.
The threaded end should be clean and properly aligned before assembly. Compatible sealing materials and proper threaded plastic-piping procedures should be used while avoiding excessive tightening.
Plain-End Connection
The plain end provides the non-threaded side of the nipple for the appropriate compatible CPVC connection method. The receiving component and joining procedure should match the nipple size and intended piping arrangement.
The plain end should be clean, properly prepared, and aligned before assembly. Installation procedures should follow the requirements of the compatible CPVC piping system and mating component.
Schedule 80 CPVC Application
A Schedule 80 CPVC Nipple TOE provides a mixed-end transition within compatible CPVC piping. Its threaded-one-end configuration supports connection to a female-threaded component while retaining a plain opposite end.
System temperature, pressure, fluid compatibility, thread compatibility, required nipple length, plain-end joining requirements, and applicable installation procedures should be reviewed for the intended application. Proper piping support should be maintained around both ends.
Installation & Selection Considerations
- Confirm the nominal size.
- Verify the TOE configuration.
- Confirm the required nipple length.
- Check female-thread compatibility.
- Verify the plain-end joining method.
Our piping specialists can help review nominal size, nipple length, threaded-one-end configuration, mating thread compatibility, plain-end requirements, and installation considerations before you order.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Schedule 80 CPVC Nipple TOE used for?
It provides a straight mixed-end connection with one male-threaded end and one plain end.
What does TOE mean?
TOE means threaded one end, indicating that only one end of the nipple has a threaded connection.
What connects to the threaded end?
The male-threaded end connects to an appropriately sized compatible female-threaded component.
What type of connection is on the opposite end?
The opposite end is plain and should be joined using the appropriate compatible CPVC connection method.
Does the nipple change piping direction?
No. The nipple maintains a straight piping path between its threaded and plain ends.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm nominal size, Schedule 80 CPVC material, TOE configuration, nipple length, thread compatibility, and plain-end joining requirements.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Confirm the nominal size.
- Verify the TOE configuration.
- Confirm the required nipple length.
- Check mating thread compatibility.
- Verify the plain-end joining requirements.
