B K Mueller 564-050HN Galvanized Pipe Nipple 3/4x5 in 10pk

Product Description

The B K Mueller Industries 564-050HN is a galvanized steel pipe nipple measuring 3/4 inch in diameter and 5 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect two fittings, valves, or other piping components. Galvanized construction provides a zinc-coated surface that resists corrosion in wet and humid environments. This nipple is a standard plumbing and gas-distribution component installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters in both residential and light commercial settings. The package contains 10 units, making it suitable for stocking or multi-point installations.

This galvanized nipple is used in water supply, natural gas distribution, compressed air, and general fluid conveyance piping systems. Its threaded ends are designed to mate with standard pipe fittings, couplings, tees, and valves. It is commonly found in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, utility spaces, and outdoor installations where corrosion resistance is a priority. The 3/4 inch size is one of the most frequently used diameters in residential and light commercial plumbing systems.
