Anvil 0332819804 Black Pipe Nipple 1 in X 2.5 in Sch 160

Product Description

The ANVIL 0332819804 is a Schedule 160 black steel pipe nipple designed for high-pressure piping applications in residential and commercial mechanical systems. Measuring 1 inch in diameter and 2.5 inches in length, this nipple features NPT threads on both ends for standard threaded assembly. The black finish coating is applied over carbon steel construction, making it suitable for gas, steam, air, and water piping where heavy-wall fittings are required. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of nipple as a close connector between threaded fittings, valves, and equipment tie-ins.

Schedule 160 nipples carry a heavier wall thickness than standard Schedule 40 or Schedule 80 fittings, making them appropriate for elevated-pressure service lines. This nipple is commonly used in commercial HVAC piping, industrial gas distribution, steam systems, and compressed air installations where pipe wall integrity under sustained pressure is a priority. Its compact 2.5-inch length suits tight-clearance installations between valves, unions, and flanged components.

Key Features

• Schedule 160 heavy-wall construction for elevated-pressure service
• 1 inch nominal pipe size with standard NPT threaded ends
• 2.5 inch overall length for close-coupled fitting connections
• Black finish coating suitable for gas, steam, air, and water lines
• Carbon steel material provides strength in mechanical and industrial piping systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard add-on fitting compatible with 1 inch NPT threaded pipe systems using Schedule 160 black steel components.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free joint. De-energize or shut off the relevant gas, steam, or fluid supply line and verify zero pressure before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as this can damage threads or adjacent fittings.
