B K Mueller 567-060HN Galvanized Pipe Nipple 1.5x6 in 5 Pack

Product Description

The B K Mueller Industries 567-060HN is a galvanized steel pipe nipple measuring 1.5 inches in diameter and 6 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded sections used to connect two female-threaded fittings or extend a pipe run within a plumbing or gas distribution system. The hot-dip galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance in wet, damp, or outdoor environments. This item is sold in a package of 5, making it a practical choice for jobs requiring multiple connections. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this component in residential and light commercial applications.

The 567-060HN is suited for water supply lines, general-purpose plumbing, fire suppression rough-in, and industrial pipe assemblies where a 1.5-inch NPT threaded connection is required. The galvanized finish makes it appropriate for exposed locations or installations subject to moisture. Typical scenarios include connecting valves, couplings, and unions in above-ground water distribution or air supply runs.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the applicable International Plumbing Code or local authority requirements. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Apply pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free connection. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as this can crack cast fittings or strip threads.
