Anvil International Inc 8700147559 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700147559 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1/4 inch diameter by 1-1/2 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded fittings used to connect two female-threaded components in a piping system. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for applications where moisture exposure is a concern. This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters in both new construction and retrofit work. It ships in a package quantity of 25, making it practical for supply houses and contractors stocking job-site inventory.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and gas distribution systems where 1/4-inch NPT threaded connections are required. It is commonly used in water supply lines, compressed air lines, and low-pressure gas piping assemblies. The compact 1-1/2-inch body length makes it appropriate for close-quarter connections where a standard nipple length would not fit.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance in moisture-prone environments
• 1/4-inch nominal pipe size with standard NPT threads on both ends
• 1-1/2-inch overall body length suits tight-clearance installations
• Packaged in quantities of 25 for efficient job-site and shop stocking

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard stock fitting compatible with 1/4-inch NPT female-threaded pipe fittings and valves in plumbing and piping assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort sealing surfaces.
