Pipe nipples serve as short threaded connectors used to join sections of pipe, fittings, or valves in a piping system. The black finish results from a hot oil or oxide coating applied during manufacturing, making this nipple a standard choice in gas piping, steam, and low-pressure fluid systems. At 0.07 pounds, it is a lightweight but durable component appropriate for licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians working on fuel gas distribution or similar black iron piping assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial applications where black iron pipe is specified, including natural gas supply lines, propane distribution, steam heating systems, and certain industrial fluid conveyance runs. It is threaded on both ends per standard NPT thread form, allowing direct connection to compatible tees, elbows, unions, valves, and other fittings within a black iron piping system. Installers typically use it in close-quarters runs where a short connector is needed between two threaded components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack steel construction provides durability in gas and steam piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/8 inch nominal diameter suits small-diameter branch lines and instrument connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3.5 inch length offers a short extension between threaded fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded both ends for straightforward integration into standard NPT piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.07 pounds for easy handling during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard OEM-style black iron pipe nipple compatible with 1\/8 inch NPT threaded fittings and valves used in residential and commercial gas, steam, and low-pressure piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC), or the International Plumbing Code (IPC) as appropriate. Shut off gas or fluid supply and relieve system pressure before making or breaking any threaded connections. Apply an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service fluid before threading the nipple into fittings. Inspect threads for damage before installation and do not over-tighten, as black iron fittings can crack if excessive force is applied.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.07 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 777701101359\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: BMI USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10135\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344493576498,"sku":"10135","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310552680.jpg?v=1782036604","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-usa-10135-black-steel-pipe-nipple-1-8-x-3-5-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
