depends what sizes you're using, if you are using the same inside diameter piping (2" sch. 40 and 2" sch 80) then no, it will not.

Sch 80 has a higher thickness hence the higher number.

oh yeah, 1.5" fits nicely inside 2" sch.40 and 80, sch. 80 into sch. 40 will probably be pretty tight, might need some lube
