Anvil International Inc 8700151957 Galvanized Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700151957 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple measuring 1 inch in diameter and 5.5 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect fittings, valves, and equipment in piping systems. The hot-dip galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance in wet or exposed environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors use nipples like this one when assembling water distribution, gas, or general-purpose pipe runs that require a close or short extension between threaded components.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and mechanical applications. Typical uses include connecting gate valves, ball valves, unions, and pipe fittings in water supply lines, gas distribution piping, and industrial fluid systems. The threaded ends allow direct engagement with standard NPT fittings. This SKU ships in a package quantity of 25 units, making it appropriate for contractors stocking a job site or supply house replenishment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where gas service applies. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before threading or removing any fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.
