Anvil International Inc 8700137808 Black Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700137808 is a black steel pipe nipple measuring 3/8 inch in diameter by 4 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect fittings, valves, and equipment in piping assemblies. This nipple is manufactured with standard tapered threads on both ends, allowing it to mate with NPT-compatible fittings. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors use close and short nipples like this one in gas, water, and general industrial piping systems where a rigid, compact threaded connection is required.

Black steel pipe nipples are a standard component in residential and commercial gas distribution systems, as well as in fire suppression, hydronic heating, and compressed air applications. The 3/8-inch by 4-inch size is commonly used for branch connections, riser drops, and equipment stub-outs. This SKU is packaged in quantities of 25 units, making it suited for multi-unit service work or stocking inventory on a service vehicle or at a shop.
