Anvil 0332829605 Black Pipe Nipple 1-1/2 in X 4 in Sch 160

Product Description

The ANVIL 0332829605 is a Schedule 160 black steel pipe nipple designed for high-pressure piping applications where standard-wall fittings are insufficient. Measuring 1-1/2 inches in diameter and 4 inches in length, this nipple features threaded ends for direct connection into pipe fittings, valves, or manifolds. The black finish coating is standard for carbon steel pipe used in gas, steam, and industrial fluid systems. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting in commercial and industrial mechanical systems where Schedule 160 wall thickness is specified by engineering or code.

Schedule 160 nipples are used in high-pressure steam lines, gas distribution piping, hydraulic systems, and industrial process piping. The 1-1/2 inch diameter and 4 inch length make this a common close-to-short extension nipple used when transitioning between valves, headers, or equipment connections in tight-clearance mechanical rooms and equipment pads. This fitting is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit work where Schedule 160 wall thickness is required by the system design or applicable mechanical code.

Key Features

• Schedule 160 wall thickness for high-pressure service requirements
• 1-1/2 inch pipe diameter with threaded ends for standard fitting connections
• 4 inch overall length suitable for close-coupled valve and equipment hookups
• Black finish carbon steel construction standard for gas and steam piping systems
• Single-piece construction with no welds or joints along the body

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with 1-1/2 inch Schedule 160 threaded piping systems using standard NPT thread patterns.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable mechanical codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any threaded pipe fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before making up threaded connections. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
