Anvil 0332621408 Black Pipe Nipple 3/4 X 8 in Sch 80

Product Description

The ANVIL 0332621408 is a Schedule 80 black steel pipe nipple measuring 3/4 inch in diameter and 8 inches in length, with threaded ends on both sides. The heavier wall thickness of Schedule 80 makes it suitable for higher-pressure piping runs compared to standard Schedule 40 fittings. This nipple is used to extend or connect sections of black iron pipe in gas, steam, and water distribution systems. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of fitting as part of routine service and new construction work.

This nipple is commonly used in residential and light commercial applications including natural gas and propane supply lines, steam heating systems, and industrial fluid transfer piping. The black finish coating is standard for gas piping applications where galvanized fittings are not permitted by code. At 8 inches in length, this nipple works well as a close extension between valves, fittings, and equipment connections in tight or standard-clearance installations.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for higher-pressure service compared to Schedule 40
• 3/4 inch pipe size with 8 inch overall length
• Black finish coating suitable for gas piping per common code requirements
• Threaded ends for standard NPT connections
• Steel construction for durability in steam, gas, and water service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with standard 3/4 inch NPT black iron piping systems used in gas, steam, and water distribution applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the gas or fluid supply before making any connections. Apply an approved thread sealant or pipe tape rated for the intended service medium to all threaded joints. Do not overtighten connections, as this can damage threads and compromise the seal.
