Aqualine GPN-20-36 Galvanized Steel Pipe Nipple Sch 40

Product Description

The AQUALINE GPN-20-36 is a Schedule 40 galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 2 inches in diameter and 36 inches in length. It is used to connect threaded pipe fittings, valves, and other components in water supply, industrial, and mechanical piping systems. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for longevity in wet or exposed environments. This nipple ships at 10 pounds and is handled by licensed plumbers and pipefitters in both new construction and retrofit applications.

This nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic piping, fire protection laterals, and general mechanical systems where a threaded steel close or length nipple is required. The 36-inch length makes it appropriate for spanning longer distances between fittings without requiring a union or coupling mid-run. It is commonly installed in utility rooms, mechanical rooms, and exposed piping runs where a rigid, durable connection is needed.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-duty pressure-rated service
• Galvanized steel construction resists rust and corrosion in wet environments
• 2-inch nominal diameter with 36-inch body length for extended runs
• Threaded ends for direct connection to NPT-compatible fittings and valves
• Suitable for water supply, hydronic, and general mechanical piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment for 2-inch NPT threaded piping systems using Schedule 40 galvanized steel components.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable IPC or local mechanical codes. Shut off and depressurize the system before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to male threads before making up connections. Do not over-torque threaded joints, as galvanized fittings can crack at excessive force.
