Anvil 0332829001 Black Pipe Nipple 1-1/2 X 2-1/2 Sch 160

Product Description

The ANVIL 0332829001 is a black steel pipe nipple designed for high-pressure piping applications where a heavier wall thickness is required. Sized at 1-1/2 inches nominal pipe diameter and 2-1/2 inches in length, this nipple is manufactured to Schedule 160 wall specifications, delivering significantly greater wall thickness than standard Schedule 40 or 80 fittings. Both ends are threaded for direct connection to compatible fittings, valves, or pipe. The black finish is applied without galvanizing, making it a common choice for gas, steam, and industrial piping systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers of this component.

This nipple is suited for residential and commercial piping systems that require elevated pressure ratings or reduced bore diameter resulting from heavier wall construction. Schedule 160 nipples see frequent use in steam distribution, high-pressure gas lines, hydraulic piping, and industrial process piping. The 1-1/2 inch nominal size fits standard threaded fittings of matching schedule and thread standard. It is sold individually and is appropriate for new installations and repair work alike.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded piping components. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before making up connections. Do not overtighten threaded joints, as Schedule 160 fittings have reduced thread engagement depth compared to lighter schedules.
