Anvil International Inc 8700147955 Galvanized Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700147955 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple measuring 0.25 inches in diameter by 5.5 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect two fittings, valves, or other piping components within a plumbing or mechanical system. The hot-dip galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for a range of water, gas, and general-purpose piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install these as standard components in both new construction and repair work.

This nipple is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial plumbing, heating, and gas distribution systems where a short threaded connection is required. The 0.25-inch nominal pipe size suits low-flow branch lines, instrument connections, and small-diameter service runs. It is sold in packages of 25, making it practical for contractors stocking materials for multiple jobs or high-frequency repair calls.

• 0.25-inch nominal pipe size with 5.5-inch overall length

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC requirements. Shut off the water or gas supply and relieve system pressure before making or breaking any threaded connections. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads prior to assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can damage fittings or compromise the seal.
