Anvil International Inc 8700146858 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700146858 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple used to connect threaded pipe runs in water, gas, and general plumbing systems. This close-pattern nipple measures 0.125 inches (1/8 inch) nominal pipe size with an overall length of 1.5 inches. The hot-dip galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in exposed or damp environments. It is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters in both residential and light commercial applications where a short threaded connector is needed between fittings, valves, or equipment ports.

This nipple is suited for low-pressure water, air, and gas distribution systems where a compact, threaded connection is required. Its small nominal size makes it a common choice for instrument tap connections, gauge ports, drains, and other auxiliary piping points. Sold in a package quantity of 25 units, it is appropriate for contractors stocking a range of standard nipple sizes for service work or new installation.
