Anvil International Inc 8700154209 Galvanized Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700154209 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple measuring 1.5 inches in diameter by 4 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded sections used to connect two fittings, valves, or pipes in a run. This nipple features a zinc galvanized coating that resists corrosion, making it suitable for water supply, industrial piping, and general plumbing applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install these as standard components in threaded pipe assemblies. The 4-inch length places it in the close-to-long nipple range, providing a rigid, low-profile connection between threaded components. This SKU is sold in a package quantity of 25 units.

This galvanized nipple is used in residential and commercial plumbing systems, fire protection piping, and general industrial fluid conveyance. It is appropriate for above-ground and in-wall threaded pipe assemblies where corrosion resistance is required. Typical install scenarios include connecting gate valves, unions, tees, and elbows in 1.5-inch threaded pipe runs. The galvanized finish also makes it a common choice for outdoor or damp-location piping where bare steel would be prone to oxidation.

• 1.5-inch nominal pipe diameter with standard NPT threading

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters using pipe wrenches and appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape applied to the male threads. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Follow all applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines for threaded pipe installations. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.
