Anvil International Inc 8700149852 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700149852 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple measuring 0.5 inches in diameter by 12 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect two fittings, valves, or other piping components in a plumbing or mechanical system. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in wet or exposed environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in water supply, gas distribution, and general mechanical piping systems where a close or extended threaded connection is required.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, and industrial piping applications. The 12-inch length makes it useful in situations where fittings must be spaced apart or where a standard close nipple would not bridge the required gap. It is commonly used in water supply lines, low-pressure gas lines, and steam or condensate piping where threaded galvanized steel is the specified material.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or exposed installations
• 0.5-inch nominal pipe size with 12-inch overall length
• Threaded ends for direct connection to standard NPT fittings and valves
• Sold in a package quantity of 25 units per carton

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded galvanized pipe nipple for use with compatible 0.5-inch threaded fittings, valves, and couplings in plumbing 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 where gas service is involved. Shut off the water or gas supply and depressurize the 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.
