Bmi Usa 10991 Black Steel Pipe Nipple 2x6 Inch 25 Pack

Product Description

The BMI USA 10991 is a black steel pipe nipple supplied in an assorted pack of 25, sized at 2 inches in diameter and 6 inches in length. Pipe nipples serve as short threaded connectors used to join sections of pipe or attach fittings in gas, water, and industrial piping systems. The black finish is standard for gas distribution lines, distinguishing them from galvanized nipples used in water service. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install these in residential and light commercial applications wherever a short, rigid connection is required between two threaded components.

These black steel nipples are well suited for natural gas and propane distribution piping, steam lines, and general industrial fluid conveyance where a corrosion-resistant coating is not required. The 2-inch diameter is a common size in commercial gas supply drops and larger residential heating system branch lines. The 25-piece pack supports contractors stocking service vans or completing multi-connection rough-in work on a single job site.

Key Features

• Black steel construction provides durability in gas and steam piping applications
• 2-inch diameter x 6-inch length — a commonly specified size for commercial and residential gas branch lines
• 25-piece assorted pack reduces per-unit cost for multi-connection installations
• Threaded ends for direct connection to standard pipe fittings and valves

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard trade supply fitting for threaded steel pipe systems using 2-inch schedule pipe and compatible fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation of black steel pipe nipples in gas service 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 before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for gas service to all threaded connections. Pressure-test the completed assembly before returning the system to service.
