Anvil 0330504200 Black Pipe Nipple 1/8 in Schedule 80

Product Description

The ANVIL 0330504200 is a Schedule 80 seamless black pipe nipple used to connect threaded pipe sections in gas, steam, and fluid piping systems. Sized at 1/8 inch nominal diameter and 11 inches in length, this nipple is manufactured to ASME B1.20.1 thread standards and meets ASTM material specifications. The Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure capacity compared to Schedule 40 in the same nominal size. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of nipple in close-quarters runs where a pre-threaded, fixed-length fitting is required.

This pipe nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications including gas distribution lines, steam systems, and general water or hydronic piping. The black finish coating is standard for gas service installations where galvanized fittings are not permitted. At 11 inches, this nipple covers intermediate close-run and extension applications where shorter close nipples or longer pipe sections are not ideal.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 seamless construction for higher pressure ratings versus Schedule 40
• 1/8 inch nominal pipe size, 11 inches in length
• Black finish coating suitable for natural gas and propane service
• Threaded to ASME B1.20.1 standard for reliable make-up with standard NPT fittings
• Meets ASTM material specifications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use nipple for 1/8 inch NPT threaded pipe systems conforming to Schedule 80 specifications in gas, steam, and fluid service applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes and the IFGC or IPC as appropriate. Shut off and lock out the gas or fluid supply before disassembling any threaded connections. Apply an approved thread sealant or pipe-thread compound rated for the service medium before make-up. Do not over-torque small-diameter nipples, as 1/8 inch fittings are susceptible to cracking under excessive wrench load.
