    Measure your pipe and fittings to identify their pipe size, thread size, schedule, and thread type. Then, find compatible components.

    Clear-View Standard-Wall Plastic Pipe Nipples and Pipe for Water

    See inside your line with this clear pipe, which works in a variety of residential and commercial low-pressure plumbing and water supply applications. It connects to standard-wall plastic pipe fittings. Made of PVC, it has good corrosion resistance.
    Warning: Never use plastic pipe fittings, flanges, and pipe with compressed air or gas.

    Flexible pipe isn’t as bendable as soft tubing, but it can still bend around objects, resulting in fewer connection points in your line. Fewer connection points both reduces installation time and allows for smoother flow through your line.
    Bend Radius—This is the point to which you can bend pipe or tubing without damaging it. The smaller the measurement, the better the bend.

    Clear-View Standard-Wall Plastic Pipe Fittings for Water

    Watch water flow through your line. These fittings are compatible with Schedule 40 pipe, the industry standard for residential and commercial low-pressure plumbing and water supply. Made of PVC, they have good corrosion resistance. All meet ASTM D1784 specifications and testing requirements for material quality and NSF/ANSI Standard 61 for drinking water.
    To prevent leaks in threaded connections, apply a sealant to the male threads. Threaded connections can be taken apart as needed for maintenance and repair. For metal threads, use PTFE tape. For plastic threads, apply a non-hardening, plastic-compatible sealant. Tape or sealants with PTFE are not recommended for plastic-to-plastic connections. When making a threaded connection be careful not to overtighten the threads. To prevent cracks and leaks, finger tighten the fitting, then wrench-tighten one to two turns.
    Warning: Never use plastic pipe fittings, flanges, and pipe with compressed air or gas.
