Anvil International Inc 8700148508 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700148508 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 3/8 inch diameter by 4 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect two fittings, valves, or other threaded components in a piping system. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for water supply, gas distribution, and general plumbing applications. This nipple is sold in a package of 25 units, making it practical for jobs requiring multiple connections. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting in both residential and light commercial systems.

This galvanized nipple is suited for use in water supply lines, low-pressure gas piping, and general-purpose threaded pipe assemblies. It fits standard 3/8 inch NPT threaded connections and is commonly used in residential plumbing rough-in, boiler piping, and light commercial mechanical rooms where corrosion resistance is needed and galvanized steel is the specified material.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where relevant. Shut off the water supply or gas service and depressurize the line before threading or removing any fittings. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or strip threads.
