Anvil International Inc 8700155453 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700155453 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 2 inches in diameter by 5 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short sections of externally threaded pipe used to connect two fittings, valves, or other threaded components in a piping system. The galvanized finish provides a zinc coating that resists corrosion, making this nipple suitable for water supply, general plumbing, and light industrial piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting in both new construction and retrofit work.

This nipple is used in residential and commercial plumbing systems where threaded pipe connections are required. The 2-inch diameter is a common size in main water distribution lines, HVAC hydronic piping, fire suppression rough-in work, and general industrial fluid handling. It is sold in a package quantity of 25 units, making it appropriate for contractors stocking multiple fittings for a job or for supply house distribution.

• 2-inch nominal pipe diameter with standard NPT threading on both ends

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off and depressurize the water or fluid system before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can damage fittings or distort sealing surfaces.
