Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect fittings, valves, and other components in piping systems. This nipple features male NPT threads on both ends and is finished in black, indicating it is uncoated carbon steel suited for gas, air, and water distribution systems. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install these as standard close or short nipples in residential and commercial piping assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is commonly used in natural gas distribution lines, compressed air systems, steam systems, and general industrial or mechanical piping. It fits into standard threaded fittings, tees, elbows, unions, and valves wherever a 1\/2-inch NPT connection is required. The 4-1\/2-inch body length provides enough extension to bridge short gaps between fittings or to position valves and gauges away from headers. Typical install environments include boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, gas appliance rough-ins, and industrial process piping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch NPT male threads on both ends for standard threaded fitting connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-1\/2-inch overall length suitable for short extension and offset applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack steel construction compatible with gas, air, steam, and water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a package quantity of 25 units, suitable for stocking or multi-connection jobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard NPT thread form ensures compatibility with widely available fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded fitting for use with standard 1\/2-inch NPT fittings, valves, couplings, and pipe components in residential and commercial gas, water, and air piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack steel pipe nipples are installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and gas technicians in accordance with applicable codes including the IFGC and IPC. Shut off and depressurize the system before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Apply approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, and tighten fittings with pipe wrenches to a secure, leak-free connection. Do not overtighten, as this can crack threaded fittings or distort valve bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black (uncoated carbon steel)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT (National Pipe Taper)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25 per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8700138707\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ANVIL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51525174919474,"sku":"8700138707","price":66.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3c18f1990308de2316d99360faa3e34c_11711833-f46d-4193-86bc-23d4f6f8681e.jpg?v=1785466278","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/anvil-international-inc-8700138707-black-pipe-nipple","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
