Bmi Usa 10024 Black Steel Pipe Nipple 4 Inches

Product Description

The BMI USA 10024 is a black steel pipe nipple measuring 4 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded sections used to join two female-threaded fittings or extend a pipe run in gas, water, and steam piping systems. This nipple features a black finish typical of plain steel fittings used in gas distribution and low-pressure piping applications. At 2 pounds, it offers the durability expected from steel construction. Licensed plumbers and gas fitters are the primary installers for this type of fitting.

This pipe nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and gas piping applications where a short threaded connector is required between fittings, valves, or appliances. It is commonly used in natural gas supply lines, compressed air systems, and general-purpose black iron pipe assemblies. The black finish distinguishes it from galvanized fittings, making it appropriate for gas service in many jurisdictions where galvanized pipe is not permitted on gas lines.

Key Features

• 4-inch length for close-coupled fitting connections
• Black steel construction for gas line and general piping use
• Black finish — suitable for natural gas service applications
• 2-pound weight indicates solid steel construction

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) as applicable. Shut off gas or water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or tape rated for the service medium before making up connections. Inspect threads for damage before installation and do not force cross-threaded fittings.
