CPVC Tank Nipple: Secure and Leak-Proof Connection for Water Storage Tanks

The CPVC Tank Nipple is a specialized fitting designed to create a secure, threaded connection through the wall of a water storage tank or cistern. This fitting is crucial for providing inlet or outlet ports for CPVC Pipe lines, ensuring a durable and watertight seal where the pipe passes through the tank wall. Manufactured by Yug Poly Plast, our CPVC Tank Nipple is built with high-quality, corrosion-resistant material and precision threads, making it the perfect choice for reliable water pipeline fittings in hot and cold water storage systems.

What is a CPVC Tank Nipple?

A CPVC Tank Nipple is a short length of CPVC piping with male threads on both ends and a hexagonal or flanged body in the center. It is designed to be inserted through a pre-drilled hole in the tank wall, with securing nuts (often metal or plastic) threaded onto the outside to compress a gasket or washer against the tank surface, forming a watertight seal. The exposed male threads on either side allow for easy connection to female threaded fittings (like a CPVC Plain FTA or valves), establishing a strong connection for the CPVC water pipeline to the tank.

Key Features of CPVC Tank Nipple (Yug Poly Plast Product)

• Watertight Tank Connection:

  • Made entirely from CPVC, it will not rust or corrode over time, even when submerged in stored water, guaranteeing water quality and fitting longevity.
• High-Temperature Durability:
  • Ideal for connecting hot water storage tanks, as the CPVC material handles temperatures up to 200°F (93°C).
• Precision Male Threads:
  • Accurately molded male threads on both sides ensure compatibility with standard female threaded fittings and ease of installation.
• Mechanical Strength:
  • Offers robust mechanical stability, securely anchoring the pipe connection point to the storage tank.
• Easy Installation:
  • Simple to install by passing it through the tank hole and securing it with back nuts/washers, reducing installation time.

Applications of CPVC Tank Nipple

• Water Storage Tank Outlets/Inlets:
  • Used as the primary connection point for CPVC distribution lines entering or leaving residential and commercial water storage tanks.
• Solar Water Heating Tanks:
  • Ideal for connections on solar storage tanks due to its excellent tolerance for high temperatures.
• Cisterns and Sump Tanks:
  • Used to provide pipe access points in various non-potable and potable water storage vessels.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• Q1: Do I need sealant with the Tank Nipple?

  A1: PTFE tape or a thread sealant should be used on the threads where fittings connect. A rubber or silicone washer/gasket is required against the tank wall for the main seal.

• Q2: Can this be used on a metal tank?

  A2: Yes, the CPVC material acts as a dielectric break, which is beneficial when installing in metal tanks to prevent corrosion.

• Q3: Is the size measured by the hole size or the pipe size?

  A3: The size (e.g., 1 inch) refers to the standard internal pipe/thread size it matches. The tank hole size will be slightly larger than the nipple's body.

• Q4: Is the material resistant to UV exposure if the tank is outdoors?

  A4: While CPVC offers good durability, prolonged direct UV exposure should be avoided. If the tank is outside, the connections should ideally be shaded or covered.
