The hot-dip galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments, extending service life in both indoor and outdoor installations. This close-cut nipple ships in a package of 10 units, making it a practical stock item for plumbing contractors, HVAC installers, and general trade professionals who regularly work with threaded iron pipe assemblies. Both male ends carry standard NPT threads for direct engagement with couplings, tees, elbows, and valves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, gas distribution, compressed air, and low-pressure water supply applications where galvanized steel pipe is specified. It connects two threaded fittings or extends a run in tight spaces where a close nipple is too short. Typical install scenarios include boiler supply and return headers, utility water lines, and gas-train assemblies requiring short threaded segments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGalvanized coating resists corrosion in wet and high-humidity environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/8-inch NPT thread on both ends for standard threaded pipe system compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch length provides clearance for wrench engagement on both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a package of 10 for job-site and shop stocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded steel construction handles pressure typical of low-pressure plumbing and gas distribution systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard trade fitting for 1\/8-inch NPT threaded pipe systems using galvanized steel components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified HVAC technicians following applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten; use a backup wrench on adjacent fittings to prevent stress on existing connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\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: 0.52 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 EA\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: B K Mueller\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 560-030HC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHLAND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51558438469938,"sku":"560-030HC","price":17.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/36632acceb3c868fe6e69a5555a1e32a.jpg?v=1786412339","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/b-k-mueller-560-030hc-galvanized-pipe-nipple-1-8x3","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
