Description

Westlake Pipe & Fittings 220100 2″ x 10″ Threaded Schedule 80 Nipple

The Westlake Pipe & Fittings 220100 2″ × 10″ Threaded Schedule 80 Nipple is a heavy-duty PVC component engineered for strong, dependable threaded connections in pressurized piping systems. Designed for durability, precision, and long-term performance, this Schedule 80 nipple is ideal for plumbing, irrigation, pool and spa systems, water treatment facilities, and light industrial applications where longer threaded connections are required.

Manufactured from high-quality Schedule 80 PVC, the 220100 nipple features thicker walls than standard Schedule 40 fittings, delivering superior structural strength and enhanced pressure-handling capability. Its reinforced construction helps resist cracking, deformation, and mechanical stress caused by pressure fluctuations, vibration, or frequent system operation. This makes it a reliable choice for professional installations and demanding environments where system integrity and safety are critical.

With a 2-inch nominal diameter and a 10-inch overall length, this threaded nipple provides an extended solution for bridging longer distances between fittings, valves, or equipment ports. Its added length allows installers to reduce the number of connections in a system, helping to minimize potential leak points while simplifying piping layouts. This makes it especially useful for equipment pads, manifold assemblies, and retrofit projects that require precise spacing or extended reach.

Both ends of the nipple are equipped with precision-molded male pipe threads that conform to standard threading specifications. These threads engage smoothly with compatible female-threaded fittings, reducing the risk of cross-threading during installation. When used with appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape, the threaded connections create a tight, leak-resistant seal that ensures consistent, long-term performance.

PVC construction offers several advantages over metal alternatives, particularly in environments exposed to moisture, chemicals, or outdoor conditions. The Westlake 220100 nipple is naturally resistant to corrosion, rust, and chemical degradation, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. Unlike metal components, it will not seize, pit, or scale over time, significantly reducing maintenance requirements and extending the service life of the piping system.

Despite its extended length and heavy-duty construction, the lightweight nature of PVC allows for easy handling and installation. Installers benefit from faster assembly and reduced physical strain compared to heavier metal nipples, while still achieving professional-grade, pressure-rated connections. The Schedule 80 design ensures dependable strength without sacrificing ease of use.

Manufactured to strict dimensional tolerances, the 220100 nipple delivers consistent thread engagement and reliable fit across installations. This precision reduces installation errors, minimizes rework, and ensures compatibility with other Schedule 80 PVC fittings, valves, and components. Its standard gray finish blends seamlessly with existing piping systems, maintaining a clean and professional appearance.
