Anvil International Inc 8700149407 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700149407 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1/2 inch nominal diameter by 4-1/2 inches in length. Galvanized nipples serve as short threaded connectors between fittings, valves, and equipment in piping assemblies. The zinc coating provides corrosion resistance in wet or outdoor environments. This nipple is a standard close-work fitting used by licensed plumbers and pipefitters in both new construction and repair work across residential and light commercial piping systems.

This nipple is suited for use in water supply lines, gas distribution piping, and general utility piping where a short threaded connector is needed. The 1/2-inch size is among the most common nominal pipe sizes in residential and commercial plumbing rough-in work. Installers reach for this fitting when connecting valves to branch lines, stubbing out fixture supplies, or making up short runs between threaded fittings. This product is sold in a package quantity of 25 units, making it appropriate for stocking a service van or job-site supply.
