B K Mueller 564-120HN Galvanized Pipe Nipple 3/4x12 10-pack

Product Description

The B K/MUELLER INDS(IMPORT) 564-120HN is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 3/4 inch nominal diameter and 12 inches in length. Galvanized nipples serve as short threaded connectors between fittings, valves, and pipe runs in water supply, gas distribution, and general mechanical piping systems. The zinc coating provides corrosion resistance for both indoor and outdoor installations. This SKU ships as a package of 10 pieces, making it suitable for contractor restocking or multi-point installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers on commercial and residential projects.

Galvanized pipe nipples of this size are common in residential and light commercial plumbing systems, including water supply lines, irrigation risers, compressed air distribution, and low-pressure gas piping where local codes permit galvanized steel. The 3/4 inch nominal size is a standard distribution-line diameter, and the 12-inch length fits a wide range of riser, drop, and lateral connection applications. This package quantity of 10 supports service vehicles and job-site inventory needs for plumbing and mechanical contractors.

Installation Notes

Galvanized pipe nipples are installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters. Shut off water supply or isolate the gas line and depressurize the system before beginning work. Apply listed thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before assembly and tighten to fitting manufacturer specifications using a pipe wrench. Verify local code compliance, including IPC and IFGC requirements, before using galvanized pipe in gas service applications.
