Coda Resources 506997 Galvanized Steel Nipple 1/2x1-1/2 in

Product Description

The CODA RESOURCES 506997 is a 1/2-inch by 1-1/2-inch galvanized steel close nipple manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness. It arrives pre-cut and threaded to standard IPS dimensions, measured thread to thread. The pipe is galvanized in a hot zinc bath for corrosion resistance and is certified NSF 61 and lead-free. Every unit is hydrostatically tested and meets ASTM and ASME standards. This nipple is suited for licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors working on potable water lines, compressed air distribution, and pipe decor assemblies where code compliance is required.

This nipple fits residential and light commercial plumbing and mechanical systems. The 1/2-inch nominal diameter and short 1-1/2-inch length make it appropriate for tight-clearance connections, riser assemblies, and close-coupled fittings. Standard IPS threading allows direct connection to any threaded fitting, valve, or coupling sharing the same thread standard. Suitable applications include water supply lines, air lines, and decorative pipe installations within applicable plumbing codes.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness for full-pressure service in water and air applications
• Hot-dip galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for long-term serviceability
• NSF 61 certified and lead-free for use in potable water systems
• Hydrostatically tested per ASTM and ASME compliance requirements
• Standard IPS threads for compatibility with standard threaded fittings and valves
• Measurements taken thread to thread for accurate fitment planning

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component compatible with any standard IPS-threaded 1/2-inch fittings, couplings, and valves used in residential and commercial plumbing and air piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off water supply or depressurize the air line completely before making any threaded connections. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage thread engagement.
