Anvil 0332824408 Black Pipe Nipple 1-1/4 X 2-1/2 Sch 160

Product Description

The ANVIL 0332824408 is a Schedule 160 black steel pipe nipple used to connect threaded pipe sections in high-pressure plumbing, industrial, and mechanical piping systems. Measuring 1-1/4 inches in diameter and 2-1/2 inches in length, this close-tolerance nipple features NPT threads on both ends and a black finish coating. The heavier Schedule 160 wall thickness makes it suitable for applications where standard Schedule 40 or 80 fittings would not meet pressure or mechanical strength requirements. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This nipple is appropriate for use in residential and commercial piping systems where 1-1/4 inch black steel pipe is specified. Common applications include natural gas distribution lines, steam systems, compressed air lines, and hydraulic or industrial fluid transfer. The Schedule 160 rating provides added wall thickness compared to standard schedules, making it well-suited for elevated pressure service. It is typically used where local codes or engineering specifications call for heavier pipe wall construction.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local mechanical and plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can damage threads or cause fitting failure.
