A close nipple has fully threaded ends that meet at the center, allowing two fittings to be joined with minimal gap between them. The Schedule 40 wall thickness provides reliable pressure-rated performance, and the hot-dip galvanized finish resists corrosion in wet or exposed environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple when assembling or repairing threaded iron pipe runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping installations where a close-coupled threaded connection is required. Common applications include water supply lines, gas distribution piping (where code-approved for galvanized steel), hydronic heating systems, and general-purpose iron pipe assemblies. It is installed wherever a short, fully threaded male-to-female connection is needed to close the gap between two fittings or valves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClose-pattern design — fully threaded end-to-end for minimum installed length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for standard-duty pressure-rated service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGalvanized steel construction resists corrosion in damp and wet environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.5-inch nominal pipe size fits standard NPT threaded fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOrder increment of 1 — sold individually\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct addition to standard 2.5-inch NPT threaded iron pipe systems using Schedule 40 fittings, valves, and couplings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or IFGC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, and tighten with a pipe wrench to a snug, leak-free fit. Do not over-torque close nipples, as the short threaded body leaves limited material between threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Close\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.8 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 675135119752\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: AQUALINE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: GPN-250-C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"AQUALINE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51396299915570,"sku":"GPN-250-C","price":21.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/312834142.jpg?v=1782829510","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/aqualine-gpn-250-c-2-5-in-close-sch-40-galvanized-nipple","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
