Pipe nipples are short threaded sections of pipe used to connect two female-threaded fittings, valves, or other components in a piping system. This nipple features a black finish, which is standard for gas piping applications and low-pressure systems. At 0.11 pounds, it is a lightweight fitting suited for tight spaces and close-quarter connections. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of fitting during new construction and service work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial piping systems. Common applications include natural gas distribution lines, black iron piping assemblies, and low-pressure steam or air lines where black steel fittings are specified. It is typically installed between shutoff valves, appliance connectors, manifolds, or other threaded pipe components requiring a short run of pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack steel construction for use in gas and low-pressure piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/8 inch nominal pipe diameter for small-bore connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5.5 inch overall length providing a close nipple extension between fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreaded ends for standard NPT connection to compatible fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.11 pounds for easy handling during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard black steel pipe nipple for use with 1\/8 inch NPT threaded fittings in residential and commercial piping assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing and gas codes, including the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where required. Shut off gas or fluid supply and relieve system pressure before making or breaking any threaded connections. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service to all threaded joints before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can damage threads or fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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 Pipe Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.11 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 777701101557\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 10155\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346503237938,"sku":"10155","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310552619.jpg?v=1782082164","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-usa-10155-black-steel-pipe-nipple-1-8-x-5-5-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
