A pipe nipple is a short length of threaded pipe used to connect two fittings, valves, or other pipe sections. The close pattern means the nipple is threaded along its full length with no unthreaded center section, making it useful where space between fittings is tight. This type of fitting is commonly installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on gas distribution, water supply, or general black iron piping systems. Each package contains 5 nipples.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClose-pattern black pipe nipples are used in residential and light commercial applications where a direct connection between two threaded fittings is required without any gap. Common installations include gas line assemblies, boiler piping, compressed air lines, and steam systems. The black iron finish makes this nipple appropriate for gas service and non-potable water systems where galvanized fittings are not required or preferred.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClose-pattern thread configuration eliminates unthreaded shank between connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-inch nominal pipe size fits standard 2-inch threaded fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack iron finish suitable for gas service and non-potable piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackaged in quantities of 5 per unit of measure for efficient stocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard fitment for 2-inch threaded black iron piping systems in residential and light commercial plumbing and gas applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) where gas or water service is involved. Shut off and depressurize the line fully before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or pipe thread compound rated for the intended service medium before making up the joint. Do not over-tighten threaded connections on black iron fittings, as this can crack adjacent cast fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Close\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.32 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: B K\/MUELLER INDS(IMPORT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 588-001HN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHLAND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51563514593586,"sku":"588-001HN","price":20.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1df636040fdddea84ca4430a0978e45c.jpg?v=1786498628","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/b-k-mueller-indsimport-588-001hn-black-pipe-nipple-2in-close","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
