B K Mueller 567-050HN Galvanized Nipple 1.5x5 in 5-pack

Product Description

The B K Mueller Industries 567-050HN is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1.5 inches in diameter by 5 inches in length, sold in a package of five. Pipe nipples are short lengths of threaded pipe used to connect fittings, valves, and other piping components within a run. This nipple's galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance suited for water supply, general plumbing, and light industrial piping systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install these as standard fittings in both new construction and repair applications.

This galvanized nipple is used in residential and commercial plumbing systems where threaded steel pipe connections are required. Common install scenarios include water distribution lines, boiler piping, compressed air systems, and general utility plumbing. The 5-unit package makes it practical for service techs carrying stock for multiple jobs or for contractors managing high-volume rough-in work.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to male threads before makeup to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or strip threads.
