Aqualine GPN-150-24 Galvanized Steel Pipe Nipple Sch 40

Product Description

The AQUALINE GPN-150-24 is a Schedule 40 galvanized steel pipe nipple measuring 1.5 inches in diameter and 24 inches in length. This threaded nipple provides a rigid, corrosion-resistant connection between pipe fittings, valves, and equipment in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. The hot-dip galvanized coating protects the steel substrate against rust and corrosion, making it suitable for both wet and dry service environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple when a fixed-length threaded pipe section is required as part of a larger assembly.

This nipple is used in residential and commercial applications including water supply lines, gas distribution piping, fire protection systems, and mechanical room installations. Its 24-inch length makes it a practical choice for spanning longer distances between threaded fittings without requiring a union or coupling in between. The Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard pressure ratings for typical trade piping work.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-duty pressure service
• Galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in wet and damp environments
• 1.5-inch nominal diameter with NPT threads on both ends
• 24-inch length eliminates the need for additional couplings in longer runs
• Compatible with standard NPT threaded fittings and valves

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded Schedule 40 galvanized steel nipple for use with compatible 1.5-inch threaded pipe fittings, valves, and couplings in plumbing and mechanical piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC code requirements for the intended service. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT threads before assembly. Use a pipe wrench sized appropriately for 1.5-inch pipe and avoid over-tightening, which can crack fittings or distort threads. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded pipe component.
