Bmi Usa 10669 Black Steel Pipe Nipple 1x9

Product Description

The BMI USA 10669 is a black steel pipe nipple measuring 1 inch in diameter and 9 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short sections of threaded pipe used to connect two fittings, valves, or other components in a piping system. This nipple features a black finish applied over steel construction, making it appropriate for gas distribution, water, and steam applications where corrosion protection is needed. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install pipe nipples as standard connectors in both residential and light commercial systems.

This nipple is suited for use in residential and commercial plumbing, gas piping, and hydronic heating systems. The 1-inch diameter makes it a common size for branch connections, supply runs, and fixture drop installations. It is compatible with standard NPT threaded fittings and pipe assemblies of the same diameter and thread specification.

Key Features

• Black finish steel construction suitable for gas, water, and steam service
• 1-inch nominal pipe diameter with standard NPT threading on both ends
• 9-inch length provides a versatile extension or branch connection segment
• Compact at 1.18 pounds for easy handling during installation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded replacement or new-installation nipple compatible with 1-inch threaded fittings, valves, and couplings in plumbing, gas, and hydronic piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes, the International Plumbing Code, or the International Fuel Gas Code as required by the application. Shut off the gas or water supply and relieve system pressure before disassembling or modifying any piping connections. Use appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
