Aqualine GPN-150-60 Galvanized Steel Pipe Nipple Sch 40

Product Description

The AQUALINE GPN-150-60 is a Schedule 40 galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1.5 inches nominal diameter by 6 inches in length. It serves as a short threaded connector used to join pipes, valves, fittings, and other threaded components in pressurized piping systems. The hot-dip galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance in wet, outdoor, or industrial environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this nipple in water supply, gas distribution, and general-purpose piping assemblies where a steel-threaded connection is required.

This nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC piping, and industrial process lines where a 1.5-inch NPT threaded connection is specified. The 6-inch length makes it appropriate for close-to-medium offset connections between fittings, valves, or equipment ports. Its Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard pressure ratings for typical service-trade applications.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure piping service
• Hot-dip galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet environments
• 1.5-inch nominal diameter with NPT threads on both ends
• 6-inch overall length for medium-offset connections
• Compatible with standard threaded fittings, valves, and couplings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style threaded fitting for use with standard 1.5-inch NPT Schedule 40 galvanized steel piping systems in plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC or IFGC codes for the intended service. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope rated for the service medium to all NPT threads before assembly. Hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench to achieve a leak-free connection without over-torquing, which can crack fittings. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or replacing any threaded nipple.
