Edmund A. Gray NIPGAL1-2 Galvanized Steel Pipe Nipple 1 Inches X 2 Inches

Product Description

The Edmund A. Gray NIPGAL1-2 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple measuring 1 inch in diameter and 2 inches in length. This short pipe fitting connects two threaded female fittings, valves, couplings, or other piping components in a wide range of plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. The galvanized zinc coating on the exterior and interior surfaces provides strong corrosion resistance, making this nipple well suited for water supply lines, gas distribution systems, fire suppression systems, and general-purpose fluid handling applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians rely on galvanized steel nipples like the NIPGAL1-2 when they need a durable, code-compliant threaded fitting that can handle both pressure and moisture over long service life. The 1-inch nominal pipe size fits standard NPT threaded fittings, which are among the most common thread types found in commercial and residential piping systems across North America. At just 2 inches in length, this close nipple is ideal for tight spaces where a longer pipe section would create clearance problems or alignment issues. Galvanized pipe nipples are also commonly used in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, and utility areas where steel strength is required but plastic fittings are not rated for the application. The threaded ends on both sides of the NIPGAL1-2 allow for tool-assisted installation with a pipe wrench, ensuring a secure, leak-free connection when used with proper thread sealant or PTFE tape. This fitting meets standard dimensional requirements for Schedule 40 galvanized steel pipe fittings, giving contractors and facility maintenance professionals confidence in its compatibility with existing piping infrastructure. Keeping galvanized nipples in stock reduces downtime during repairs and new installations in plumbing and mechanical systems.

• 1 inch nominal diameter with 2 inch overall length for use in tight-clearance piping layouts
• Galvanized zinc coating provides corrosion resistance for water, gas, and general fluid service
• Standard NPT threaded ends on both sides for compatibility with common pipe fittings and valves

Product Highlights

The Edmund A. Gray NIPGAL1-2 galvanized steel pipe nipple delivers reliable corrosion-resistant performance in a compact 1 inch by 2 inch form factor, making it a practical choice for plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping connections that require threaded steel fittings.
