Anvil 0332835206 Black Pipe Nipple 2in X 10in Sch 160

Product Description

The ANVIL 0332835206 is a Schedule 160 black steel pipe nipple designed for high-pressure piping systems where wall thickness and durability are critical. Measuring 2 inches in diameter and 10 inches in length, this nipple features threaded ends for direct connection to fittings, valves, and other piping components. The black finish indicates an uncoated carbon steel construction suited for steam, gas, and industrial fluid applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors select Schedule 160 nipples when standard or extra-strong wall material does not meet system pressure or code requirements.

This nipple is well suited for industrial and commercial piping installations where elevated pressure ratings are required. Common applications include steam distribution, compressed gas lines, hydraulic systems, and process piping in industrial facilities. The 2-inch diameter and 10-inch length make it a practical close-to-medium length nipple for riser connections, branch takeoffs, and equipment tie-ins. It is not intended for potable water systems where black steel is restricted by plumbing code.

Key Features

• Schedule 160 wall thickness provides greater pressure capacity than standard or extra-heavy wall pipe
• 2-inch nominal diameter with threaded ends for standard NPT fitting connections
• 10-inch length suitable for close-quarters piping and branch connections
• Black finish carbon steel construction compatible with steam, gas, and industrial fluid service
• Ships as individual unit with no minimum order quantity above one piece

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-stock fitting for Schedule 160 black steel threaded piping systems using 2-inch nominal pipe size components.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable mechanical and plumbing codes. Shut down and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded pipe nipple. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free connection. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
