A close nipple has no exposed center unthreaded section, allowing two fittings to be joined with minimal separation. This type of fitting is standard in water supply, gas distribution, and general plumbing assemblies where space between threaded fittings must be kept to an absolute minimum. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install these as part of both new construction and retrofit work on threaded pipe systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis close nipple is sized at 1\/2 inch and is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic piping, and industrial pipe assemblies that use NPT-threaded components. Its hot-dip galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for use in wet or outdoor environments. It is sold in a package quantity of 25 units, making it practical for contractors stocking consumable fittings for ongoing jobsite work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClose configuration eliminates exposed unthreaded center, minimizing connection gap between fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch nominal pipe size with NPT-standard threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHot-dip galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet or outdoor applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a package quantity of 25 units for jobsite convenience\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard threaded pipe fittings, valves, and couplings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded fitting for use with 1\/2-inch NPT-threaded pipe, valves, and fittings in standard plumbing and piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working on threaded pipe systems. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to NPT threads before assembly. Because close nipples leave no wrench flat in the center, use internal pipe wrenches or strap wrenches to avoid damaging the galvanized coating during tightening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNipple Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Close\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25 units\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8700149050\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ANVIL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51524538728754,"sku":"8700149050","price":55.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d00080a887b785bb200fd066fa96ac20_849bf861-102c-4f38-ac10-5146d6a47b76.jpg?v=1785451235","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/anvil-international-inc-8700149050-galvanized-close-nipple","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
