Anvil 0332833201 Black Pipe Nipple 2in X 2in Sch 160

Product Description

The ANVIL 0332833201 is a Schedule 160 black steel pipe nipple sized at 2 inches diameter by 2 inches in length. It features NPT threads on both ends for connecting pipe runs, risers, or fittings in high-pressure or heavy-wall piping systems. The black finish is applied at the mill and is standard for gas distribution, steam, and industrial fluid piping. At 1.24 pounds, this is a solid, heavy-wall fitting suited for demanding service conditions where standard Schedule 40 or 80 wall thickness is insufficient. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and gas fitters typically handle this fitting in commercial and industrial applications.

Schedule 160 nipples are selected when system design calls for greater wall thickness to handle elevated pressures or corrosive service conditions. This 2-inch nipple fits into threaded piping assemblies in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, and industrial process lines. It is also used in gas distribution headers and steam piping where code or engineering specifications mandate heavier wall pipe. The short 2-inch length makes it practical as a close extension between flanges, valves, unions, or other threaded components.

Key Features

• Schedule 160 heavy wall for high-pressure and demanding service applications
• 2-inch nominal pipe size with 2-inch overall length
• NPT threaded both ends for standard threaded fitting connections
• Black mill finish suitable for gas, steam, and industrial fluid systems
• Compact length works as a close extension between valves, fittings, or flanges

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 2-inch Schedule 160 threaded black steel piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or gas fitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IFGC, ASME B31.1, or local mechanical codes. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before threading or unthreading any fittings. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections; use a pipe wrench with appropriate backup to avoid damaging adjacent fittings or valves.
