Anvil International Inc 8700154704 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700154704 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1.5 inches nominal diameter by 12 inches in length. Pipe nipples serve as short threaded connectors used to join sections of pipe or to connect pipe to fittings, valves, and equipment in fluid and gas distribution systems. The hot-dip galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance suited to wet or outdoor environments. This nipple is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors in both new construction and retrofit applications.

This galvanized nipple is commonly used in water supply, compressed air, fire protection, and low-pressure steam systems. Its 12-inch length makes it useful as a close-reach extension or offset in tight mechanical spaces. The threaded ends conform to standard NPT dimensions, allowing connection to standard galvanized fittings, flanges, and valves. It is appropriate for residential and light commercial piping installations where corrosion resistance is required.

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). Shut off and depressurize the supply line before removing or installing any pipe nipple. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male NPT threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack cast fittings or damage threads.
