Anvil International Inc 8700155552 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700155552 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 2 inches by 6 inches. A pipe nipple is a short length of threaded pipe used to connect fittings, valves, or equipment in piping systems. The galvanized finish provides a zinc coating that resists corrosion, making this nipple suitable for water supply, gas, and general plumbing applications. It is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on both new construction and retrofit piping systems.

This galvanized pipe nipple is used in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, fire protection piping, and industrial process lines where a short threaded connector is needed between two fittings or threaded ports. Its 2-inch diameter suits main distribution lines and branch connections in moderate-flow applications. It ships in quantities of 25 units per package, making it practical for contractors stocking job-site materials.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or applicable local codes. Shut off the water supply or isolate the gas line before installing or replacing pipe nipples in active systems. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up connections to prevent leaks. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.
