Description

Westlake Pipe & Fittings 207060 0.75″ x 6″ Threaded Schedule 80 Nipple

The Westlake Pipe & Fittings 207060 0.75″ × 6″ Threaded Schedule 80 Nipple is a precision-manufactured PVC piping component engineered to deliver reliable performance in pressurized plumbing and industrial systems. Designed for durability and strength, this Schedule 80 nipple provides a dependable threaded connection where extended reach and pressure resistance are required. It is commonly used in plumbing, irrigation, pool and spa installations, water treatment systems, and light industrial piping applications.

Constructed from high-quality Schedule 80 PVC, this nipple features thicker walls than standard Schedule 40 fittings, resulting in superior structural integrity and pressure-handling capability. The reinforced design helps resist cracking, deformation, and mechanical stress caused by pressure fluctuations or vibration, ensuring long-term performance in demanding environments. This makes the 207060 nipple a reliable choice for systems where durability and safety are critical.

With a 0.75-inch nominal diameter and a 6-inch overall length, this threaded nipple is ideal for bridging moderate distances between fittings, valves, or equipment ports. Its extended length allows installers to span gaps without adding extra couplings, helping streamline piping layouts and reduce potential leak points. This design is especially useful in equipment pads, manifolds, and retrofit applications where precise spacing is necessary.

Both ends of the nipple are equipped with precision-molded male pipe threads that meet standard threading specifications. These threads engage smoothly with compatible female-threaded fittings, minimizing the risk of cross-threading during installation. When installed using appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape, the threaded connections provide a secure, leak-resistant seal that supports long-term system reliability.

PVC construction offers important advantages over metal components, particularly in environments exposed to moisture, chemicals, or outdoor conditions. The Westlake 207060 nipple is naturally resistant to corrosion, rust, and chemical degradation, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. It will not seize, pit, or scale over time, helping reduce maintenance needs and extend the service life of the piping system.

Despite its extended length, the lightweight nature of PVC makes this nipple easy to handle and install, even in tight or overhead spaces. Installers benefit from quicker assembly and reduced fatigue compared to heavier metal alternatives, while still achieving strong, pressure-rated connections. The Schedule 80 design ensures professional-grade performance without sacrificing ease of use.

Manufactured to strict dimensional tolerances, the Westlake 207060 nipple provides consistent thread engagement and reliable fit across installations. This precision reduces installation errors, minimizes rework, and ensures compatibility with other Schedule 80 PVC fittings and components. The standard gray finish blends seamlessly with existing piping systems, maintaining a clean and professional appearance.
