Bmi Usa 10267 Black Steel Pipe Nipple 1/4 X 7 in

Product Description

The BMI USA 10267 is a black steel pipe nipple used to connect sections of threaded pipe in gas, water, and general plumbing systems. Measuring 1/4 inch in diameter and 7 inches in length, this close-tolerance nipple threads directly into fittings, valves, and manifolds without additional modification. The black finish is standard for gas-line applications and low-pressure fluid systems. At 0.24 pounds, it is a lightweight but solid steel fitting suited for installations where a short, straight pipe extension is required. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers.

This nipple is commonly used in residential and light commercial plumbing and gas distribution systems. It is appropriate for applications requiring a 1/4 inch NPT threaded connection with a 7-inch run between two fittings. Typical uses include burner supply lines, appliance connections, manifold extensions, and general pipe assembly where a straight nipple is specified. The black steel construction makes it a standard choice for natural gas and propane distribution lines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes, IPC, and IFGC requirements. Shut off the gas or water supply completely before disassembling any existing piping. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before threading the nipple into fittings. Do not over-tighten; hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench for final seating.
