Aqualine GPN-150-100 Galvanized Steel Pipe Nipple Sch 40

Product Description

The AQUALINE GPN-150-100 is a Schedule 40 galvanized steel pipe nipple measuring 1.5 inches in diameter and 10 inches in length. Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance, making this nipple suitable for water supply, drainage, and general plumbing distribution lines. It is used in threaded pipe assemblies where a short, rigid connection is needed between fittings, valves, or equipment. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this component in both new construction and retrofit applications across residential and light commercial systems.

This nipple is appropriate for potable water supply lines, irrigation headers, industrial process piping, and general plumbing rough-in work where Schedule 40 wall thickness is specified. It is also commonly used in HVAC hydronic systems and pool or spa mechanical rooms for connecting pumps, valves, and distribution manifolds. The galvanized finish is well suited to wet or damp environments where bare steel would be prone to surface rust.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-duty pressure service
• Hot-dip galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance in wet environments
• 1.5-inch nominal diameter with NPT threads on both ends
• 10-inch body length suits medium-reach connections between fittings or equipment
• Steel construction handles mechanical stress and vibration typical in pump and valve assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment for Schedule 40 threaded galvanized steel pipe assemblies using 1.5-inch NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT threads before assembly, and tighten with a pipe wrench to achieve a leak-free joint without over-stressing the fitting. Do not use this nipple in steam service or at pressures exceeding the Schedule 40 rating for the pipe size.
