Anvil International Inc 8700147658 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700147658 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1/4 inch nominal diameter by 2-1/2 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short sections of threaded pipe used to connect fittings, valves, and equipment in piping assemblies. The galvanized finish provides a zinc coating that resists corrosion in moisture-prone environments. This nipple is a standard close-tolerance fitting used by plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors in both new construction and repair work across water, gas, and general piping systems.

This galvanized nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, and general mechanical piping applications where a short threaded connector is needed between two fittings or at an equipment port. The 1/4 inch by 2-1/2 inch size fits common low-pressure service lines and branch connections. It is sold in a package quantity of 25 units, making it practical for stocking or multi-point installations on a single job.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable local plumbing codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any threaded pipe fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded fittings, as this can crack female fittings or distort threads.
