B K/mueller Inds(import) 584-080HN Black Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The B K/MUELLER INDS(IMPORT) 584-080HN is a black steel pipe nipple used to connect sections of threaded pipe in gas, air, and fluid distribution systems. Measuring 3/4 inch in diameter and 8 inches in length, it provides a rigid, close-coupled connection between fittings, valves, or equipment ports. The black finish is standard for gas distribution and low-pressure steam applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple in commercial and residential systems where a short, fixed-length threaded section is required.

This nipple is suited for natural gas lines, propane distribution, compressed air, and low-pressure steam piping in both residential and light commercial settings. It threads directly into standard NPT fittings, valves, manifolds, and equipment inlets. It is sold in a package quantity of 10, making it practical for service vans, wholesale stock, or multi-drop jobs where consistent short nipple lengths are needed.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded black steel pipe nipple compatible with 3/4 inch threaded pipe fittings, valves, and equipment connections in gas, air, and low-pressure fluid piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable local codes and IFGC requirements for gas piping systems. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium to all NPT threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten; use a pipe wrench with a backup wrench on adjoining fittings to avoid stressing connected components.
