Directedair dabn-05x480 Black Steel Nipple Schedule 40

Product Description

The DIRECTEDAIR dabn-05x480 is a black steel pipe nipple manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness and threaded on both ends. It is designed for use in gas, air, and other compatible piping systems where a short, rigid threaded connector is needed between fittings or equipment. The nipple meets or exceeds applicable ASTM and ANSI dimensional and material composition standards. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and gas technicians are the primary installers of this type of fitting in both residential and light commercial applications.

This nipple is suited for use in natural gas supply lines, compressed air distribution, and general industrial piping where black steel is the specified material. Schedule 40 wall thickness provides a reliable pressure rating appropriate for typical trade piping applications. It is sold in full box or case quantities, making it practical for stocking on service vehicles or in supply rooms where multiple installations are anticipated.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or gas technician in accordance with applicable local codes, IFGC requirements for gas piping, or ASME B31 standards for pressure piping. Shut off and depressurize the supply line and verify zero pressure before making or breaking any threaded connections. Apply an approved thread sealant or tape rated for the intended service medium to all male threads before assembly.
