Anvil International Inc 8700150306 Galvanized Close Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700150306 is a 3/4-inch close galvanized steel nipple used in threaded pipe assemblies across plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. A close nipple has threads running the full length of the fitting with no unthreaded shoulder between them, allowing two fittings to be joined with minimal spacing. The hot-dip galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for water supply, gas distribution, and general piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting in both new construction and retrofit work.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial installations where a 3/4-inch threaded connection is required and space between fittings must be kept to an absolute minimum. Common applications include water supply lines, compressed air systems, and gas piping headers where standard nipple lengths are too long for the layout. The fitting ships in a package quantity of 25 units, making it practical for contractors stocking a job site or supply van.

Key Features

• Close configuration — fully threaded with no bare shoulder for tight back-to-back fitting connections
• 3/4-inch nominal pipe size with standard NPT threading
• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet and moderate-exposure environments
• Sold in a package quantity of 25 units per package
• Suitable for water, gas, and compressed air piping systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard stock fitting for 3/4-inch NPT threaded pipe systems in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter using a pipe wrench and appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Close nipples require a nipple extractor or chain wrench for removal when fully engaged between two fittings. Follow local plumbing codes and IFGC requirements when used in gas service.
