Anvil International Inc 8700155255 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700155255 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 2 inches by 3 inches. A pipe nipple is a short length of threaded pipe used to connect two fittings, valves, or other piping components in a run. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance, making this nipple suitable for water supply, plumbing distribution, and general piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting during new construction and retrofit work. This unit ships in a package quantity of 25 pieces, making it practical for job-lot purchasing on larger projects.

This galvanized nipple is used in residential and commercial plumbing systems, water distribution lines, and general industrial piping. The 2-inch nominal pipe size suits main distribution runs and branch connections where corrosion resistance is required. It is commonly installed in wet or damp environments where bare steel would be prone to oxidation, including mechanical rooms, utility spaces, and outdoor-exposed piping assemblies.

Key Features

• Galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for water and general-service piping
• 2-inch nominal pipe size by 3-inch length for compact close-nipple connections
• Threaded ends for standard NPT fitting connections
• Sold in a package quantity of 25 units for job-lot and contractor purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-service fitting compatible with 2-inch NPT threaded pipe fittings, valves, and couplings used in residential and commercial plumbing and water distribution systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before threading the nipple into place. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Tighten connections using a pipe wrench to achieve a proper seal without over-stressing the fitting. Follow local plumbing codes and IPC requirements for material selection and pressure ratings.
