Bmi Usa 10785 Black Steel Pipe Nipple 1.25x60 in

Product Description

The BMI USA 10785 is a black steel pipe nipple measuring 1.25 inches in diameter and 60 inches in length. It is a ready-cut threaded pipe section used in plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping systems where a longer run is needed between fittings or connections. Weighing 11.28 pounds, this nipple is manufactured from steel with a black finish, making it suitable for gas lines and general-purpose piping in both commercial and residential applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple as part of threaded iron pipe assemblies.

This pipe nipple is used in threaded piping systems for gas, steam, or water distribution. Its 60-inch length makes it appropriate for longer straight runs where a standard close, short, or medium nipple would not reach. It is commonly installed in mechanical rooms, utility spaces, and commercial plumbing layouts where black iron pipe assemblies are specified. The black finish is standard for natural gas and propane distribution piping in accordance with applicable codes.

Key Features

• 60-inch ready-cut length suits long straight pipe runs without field cutting
• 1.25-inch nominal diameter fits standard threaded fittings and valves
• Steel construction provides strength and durability in gas and mechanical piping systems
• Black finish is code-accepted for natural gas and propane distribution lines
• Threaded ends allow direct connection to standard NPT fittings, couplings, and valves

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded replacement nipple for 1.25-inch nominal black iron pipe systems using NPT fittings in gas, steam, or water piping assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with the International Fuel Gas Code, International Plumbing Code, or applicable local codes. Shut off gas or water supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any pipe section. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or pipe dope rated for the intended service before making up threaded connections. Inspect threads for damage before installation and do not over-tighten, as this can crack fittings.
