Anvil 0332630201 Black Pipe Nipple 1-1/4 in X 8 in Sch 80

Product Description

The ANVIL 0332630201 is a Schedule 80 black steel pipe nipple designed for close-quarter pipe connections in gas, steam, and liquid piping systems. Measuring 1-1/4 inches in diameter and 8 inches in length, it features NPT threads on both ends for standard threaded assembly. The heavier Schedule 80 wall thickness provides increased pressure resistance compared to Schedule 40, making it well-suited for higher-demand service conditions. The black finish coating is standard for gas distribution and industrial applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this nipple as a short connector between fittings, valves, and pipe runs.

This nipple fits into residential and commercial piping installations where a 1-1/4 inch threaded connection is required. Typical applications include natural gas supply lines, steam distribution, water service, and compressed air systems. The 8-inch body length fills gaps between fittings where close nipples or hex nipples are too short. Schedule 80 wall construction is commonly specified in industrial and commercial mechanical rooms where pressure ratings or code requirements exceed Schedule 40 allowances.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for elevated pressure service
• 1-1/4 inch nominal pipe size with NPT threads on both ends
• 8-inch overall body length
• Black finish coating standard for gas and industrial piping
• Steel construction for durability in high-temperature and high-pressure environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component compatible with standard 1-1/4 inch NPT threaded fittings, valves, and pipe couplings used in Schedule 80 piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable code requirements such as the IPC or IFGC for gas piping. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before making or breaking any threaded connections. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium to all NPT threads before assembly. Avoid over-tightening, which can crack fittings or distort threads.
