Anvil International Inc 8700141206 Black Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700141206 is a black steel pipe nipple measuring 1 inch in diameter and 5 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect two female-threaded fittings or to extend a pipe run within a system. This nipple is finished in black, indicating it is made from black steel pipe stock rather than galvanized material. It is a standard component found in gas distribution, steam, and hydronic heating systems, as well as industrial piping installations. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC mechanics install this type of fitting as part of routine system assembly or repair work.

Black steel pipe nipples are commonly used in residential and commercial applications where galvanized coatings are not required or preferred. Typical uses include natural gas and propane supply lines, steam heating systems, fire suppression headers, and general industrial fluid transport. This 1-inch by 5-inch size fits standard Schedule 40 pipe fitting configurations and is a frequently stocked item for contractors maintaining a ready supply of common pipe fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) where applicable. Shut off gas or fluid supply and relieve system pressure before making any connections. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service to all threaded joints before assembly.
