Anvil International Inc 8700151908 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700151908 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1 inch nominal diameter by 5 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect fittings, valves, and equipment in piping assemblies. This nipple features a hot-dip or mill galvanized zinc coating that resists corrosion in wet and exposed environments. It is a standard component installed by plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors in water supply, gas distribution, and general industrial piping systems.

This galvanized nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, fire protection, and mechanical piping applications where corrosion resistance is required. Typical uses include connecting threaded fittings at water heaters, boilers, and distribution manifolds. The 1 inch by 5 inch sizing covers a common range of close-quarter connections in both new construction and retrofit work.

• 1 inch nominal diameter fits standard 1 inch threaded fittings and valves

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC code requirements for the intended service. Shut off water supply or gas service and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Use appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium on all NPT threads. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.
