Anvil International Inc 8700142303 Black Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700142303 is a black steel pipe nipple sized at 1-1/4 inches by 4 inches. A pipe nipple is a short length of threaded pipe used to connect two fittings, valves, or other piping components in a run. This nipple is finished in black iron, making it well suited for gas distribution, compressed air, and general industrial piping systems. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install nipples like this one as part of routine pipe assembly and repair work. Sold in packages of 25 units, it is a standard stocking item for service trucks and supply rooms.

This nipple is used in residential and light commercial piping applications where black steel pipe is specified. Common installations include natural gas supply lines, propane distribution, fire suppression rough-in, and compressed air headers. The 1-1/4-inch nominal diameter and 4-inch length make it a frequently called-for size in branch connections and short offset runs within mechanical rooms and utility chases.
