B K/mueller Inds(import) 585-080HN Black Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The B K/MUELLER INDS(IMPORT) 585-080HN is a black steel pipe nipple measuring 1 inch in diameter and 8 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to join fittings, valves, and other piping components in gas, air, and liquid distribution systems. This nipple features NPT threads on both ends and a black iron finish suited for non-corrosive indoor applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and gas technicians install these as standard connectors in a wide range of commercial and residential piping assemblies. The package contains 5 units per order quantity.

This black pipe nipple is commonly used in natural gas distribution lines, compressed air systems, and steam or water piping where black iron fittings are specified. It fits standard threaded pipe systems and is a go-to component for branch connections, appliance hookups, and general piping runs in both residential and light commercial settings. Sold in a package of 5, it suits service vehicles and job-site stock where multiple fittings are consumed regularly.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or gas technicians in accordance with applicable local codes, IFGC, and IPC requirements. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and verify zero pressure before removing or installing threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium to all NPT threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
