B K Mueller 564-015HN Galvanized Pipe Nipple 3/4x1-1/2

Product Description

The B K Mueller Industries 564-015HN is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 3/4 inch nominal diameter by 1-1/2 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded fittings used to connect two female-threaded components in a piping system, acting as a close or short extension between valves, fittings, or equipment ports. The galvanized zinc coating provides corrosion resistance suited for water supply, gas distribution, and general mechanical piping applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC mechanics install these fittings during system assembly, repairs, or modifications. This SKU is sold in a package quantity of 15 pieces.

This nipple fits standard residential and light commercial piping applications where 3/4 inch threaded connections are required. Typical uses include water supply lines, heating system piping, compressed air distribution, and general industrial plumbing. The short 1-1/2 inch body makes it well suited for tight-clearance installations where a longer nipple would not fit. It is commonly used at valve inlets and outlets, union connections, and equipment supply ports throughout both new construction and retrofit work.

Installation Notes

Installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Always shut off the water supply or depressurize the line before removing or installing threaded fittings. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe joint compound to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can crack female-threaded fittings or distort sealing surfaces.
