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

The CPVC Tank Nipple, manufactured and supplied by Yug International, is a specialized fitting designed to create a reliable and leak-proof connection through the wall of a water storage tank, drum, or other container. This critical component allows a pipeline system to connect directly to the interior of a tank. Featuring robust construction and excellent high-temperature resistance, our tank nipple ensures a durable and corrosion-free interface between the tank and your CPVC Pipe Fittings network, ideal for high-performance hot and cold water plumbing systems.

What is a CPVC Tank Nipple?

A CPVC Tank Nipple is a threaded fitting designed specifically for bulkheads or tank walls. It typically consists of a threaded body with an external flange, and often comes with a separate backing nut and rubber gaskets. The body passes through a drilled hole in the tank wall, and the backing nut is tightened against the flange, compressing the gaskets to form a watertight seal. This allows a CPVC Pipe or other fitting to be screwed directly onto the nipple, providing a dedicated inlet or outlet connection for the water pipeline fittings.
