Anvil International Inc 8700149753 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700149753 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 0.5 inches nominal diameter by 10 inches in length. Pipe nipples serve as short threaded connectors between fittings, valves, and equipment in piping assemblies. This nipple carries a hot-dip or mill galvanized zinc coating that resists corrosion in wet and moderately aggressive service environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors use close and standard-length nipples like this one daily when assembling water supply, gas distribution, and general-purpose piping systems in both new construction and retrofit work.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic piping, fire protection rough-in, and industrial utility lines where a 0.5-inch threaded connection is required. The 10-inch body length provides clearance for installations where standard close or short nipples cannot bridge the required gap between two threaded fittings or ports. It is sold in a package quantity of 25 pieces, making it appropriate for contractors stocking material for multi-unit or production work.

Key Features

• Galvanized zinc coating provides corrosion resistance for wet and utility service environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded pipe nipple for use with 0.5-inch NPT fittings, valves, and couplings in plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IFGC requirements for gas service. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage thread engagement.
