Anvil International Inc 8700149555 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700149555 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple measuring 1/2 inch in diameter by 6 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect fittings, valves, and other pipe segments in a run. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance, making this nipple suitable for water supply, gas distribution, and general plumbing systems where moisture or outdoor exposure is a concern. Plumbers and pipefitters install these as standard components in both new construction and repair work across residential and light commercial applications.

This nipple is used in threaded pipe assemblies where a 1/2-inch nominal pipe size connection is required. Common applications include domestic water supply lines, fire protection systems, compressed air lines, and low-pressure gas piping. The 6-inch length makes it appropriate for applications requiring a short extension or offset between fittings. It is sold in a package quantity of 25 units, suiting contractors and service professionals who need consistent stock on hand for recurring installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters. Shut off the water supply or isolate the piping system and relieve pressure before beginning work. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Thread connections should be tightened to a firm, leak-free fit without over-torquing, and all installations must comply with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code where adopted.
