Anvil International Inc 8700149258 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700149258 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple measuring 1/2 inch in diameter by 3 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, making this nipple suitable for water supply, gas, and general-purpose piping applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting as part of new construction or repair work on threaded pipe assemblies.

This nipple is used in residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, and industrial piping systems where 1/2-inch threaded connections are required. The 3-inch length makes it suitable for close-clearance installations where a longer nipple or cut pipe section would not fit. It is sold in a package quantity of 25 units, making it practical for service vans and job-site supply needs.

Key Features

• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in water and general-purpose piping service
• 1/2 inch nominal diameter with 3 inch length for close-clearance connections
• Threaded ends for direct connection to fittings, valves, and couplings
• Sold in a package quantity of 25 units per package

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the affected line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
