B K/mueller Inds(import) 565-100HN Galvanized Nipple

Product Description

The B K/MUELLER INDS(IMPORT) 565-100HN is a galvanized steel pipe nipple measuring 1 inch in diameter and 10 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect two fittings, valves, or pipe runs in a piping assembly. This nipple features a zinc galvanized finish that provides corrosion resistance in water supply, gas distribution, and general plumbing applications. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting as part of threaded pipe systems in both residential and light commercial settings. Each package contains 5 nipples, making it a practical quantity for service work or new installation projects.

This galvanized nipple is suited for use in water supply lines, drain and vent assemblies where threaded steel pipe is specified, and general industrial piping where corrosion resistance is required. The 1-inch diameter is a common size found in main water supply branches, boiler piping, and fire suppression system extensions. The 10-inch length provides adequate reach for close-to-wall or close-to-fitting connections where longer cut pipe would be impractical. Sold in a package of 5 units, this product is well suited for contractors stocking a service truck or completing multi-connection installations.

Installation Notes
