Anvil International Inc 8700147302 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700147302 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1/8 inch diameter by 6 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect two fittings, valves, or other pipe segments within a piping system. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suited for water supply, gas distribution, and general plumbing applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in both new construction and retrofit work where a short, threaded connection is required between system components.

This nipple is appropriate for residential and light commercial piping systems. The 1/8-inch nominal pipe size targets small-diameter runs such as instrument lines, pilot gas lines, and low-volume water supply branches. The 6-inch body length provides enough reach for standard offset connections without requiring a union or coupling. It is typically found in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, and utility piping assemblies where small-diameter galvanized fittings are standard.

Key Features

• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in water and general plumbing service
• 1/8-inch nominal pipe size with 6-inch body length
• Threaded ends for connection to standard NPT fittings, valves, and couplings
• Sold in a package quantity of 25 units per package

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard stock fitting for 1/8-inch NPT threaded piping systems in residential and commercial plumbing and mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements for the intended service. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service type to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten, as small-diameter nipples are susceptible to stress cracking at the threads.
