Anvil International Inc 8700147005 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700147005 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1/8 inch nominal diameter by 3 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect fittings, valves, and equipment in piping assemblies. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance, making this nipple suitable for water supply, gas distribution, and general plumbing applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting during rough-in and repair work on threaded pipe systems.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC, and gas piping systems where 1/8-inch NPT threaded connections are required. Its 3-inch length fills short gaps between fittings or between a fitting and a valve. The galvanized finish makes it a common choice in wet or damp environments where bare steel would be prone to oxidation. It is sold in packages of 25 units, making it practical for contractors stocking parts for multiple jobs.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and damp environments
• 1/8-inch nominal NPT threaded ends for standard threaded pipe system connections
• 3-inch overall length for short-span connections between fittings and equipment
• Sold in 25-piece packages for contractor-level supply needs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style replacement and new-installation fitting for threaded pipe systems using 1/8-inch NPT connections in plumbing, HVAC, and gas piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements for the system type. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench to bring threads to full engagement without over-tightening. Shut off and depressurize the system before removing or replacing any threaded fitting.
