Measuring 1\/8 inch in diameter and 9 inches in length, this nipple serves as a short connector between fittings, valves, and other threaded components. Its black steel construction makes it well-suited for natural gas and propane lines, as well as fire suppression and industrial piping applications where galvanized or brass fittings are not required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is commonly used in residential and light commercial gas distribution systems, as well as in low-pressure steam and air lines. The 1\/8 inch nominal pipe size fits standard NPT threaded fittings of the same size. Its 9-inch length makes it useful in runs that require a rigid, fixed-length male-threaded connector between two points in a piping assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack steel construction suited for gas, steam, and mechanical piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e9-inch length provides fixed standoff between threaded connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/8 inch nominal pipe size with standard NPT threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.18 pounds for easy handling and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish applied for corrosion identification and system differentiation in gas piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard fitting for threaded black steel pipe assemblies using 1\/8 inch NPT connections in gas, steam, air, or mechanical piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of black steel pipe nipples on gas lines must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC). Shut off the gas supply and verify zero pressure at the line before making any connections. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for gas service to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can damage threads or cause fitting failure.\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 Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.18 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 777701101694\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: 10169\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344909926706,"sku":"10169","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310553536.jpg?v=1782045224","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-usa-10169-black-steel-pipe-nipple-1-8-x-9-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
