Anvil International Inc 8700147609 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700147609 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple measuring 1/4 inch in diameter by 2 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect fittings, valves, and other components in piping assemblies. The hot-dip galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance, making this nipple suitable for water supply, gas distribution, and general plumbing systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in both new construction and retrofit applications.

This nipple is used in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, and industrial piping where a short threaded connector is needed between two threaded female fittings or valves. The 1/4-inch thread size suits smaller branch lines and instrument connections. It is sold in a package quantity of 25 units, making it practical for contractors stocking consumables on the job or in supply inventory.
