Anvil International Inc 8700142154 Black Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700142154 is a black steel close nipple used to connect threaded pipe fittings in a wide range of piping systems. Measuring 1-1/4 inches in diameter by 2-1/2 inches in length, this nipple serves as a short threaded extension between fittings, valves, or pipe sections. The black finish indicates an uncoated carbon steel construction typical for gas distribution, steam, and industrial fluid piping applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors are the primary installers of this component.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping systems where black steel pipe is specified, including natural gas supply lines, steam heating systems, and general-purpose liquid or air distribution. The 1-1/4 inch diameter makes it a common size in branch lines and service drops. It is sold in a package quantity of 25 units, making it practical for contractors stocking hardware for multiple rough-in jobs.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable codes such as the International Fuel Gas Code or International Plumbing Code.
