Edmund a Gray NIPGAL112-412 Galvanized Steel Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The EDMUND A GRAY NIPGAL112-412 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1-1/2 inches nominal diameter by 4-1/2 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect two female-threaded fittings, valves, or equipment ports. The galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for water supply, gas distribution, and general plumbing applications. This nipple is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on commercial and residential piping systems where a close or short extension connection is needed between components.

This pipe nipple is suited for use in residential and light commercial plumbing, gas piping, and industrial fluid conveyance systems. The 1-1/2 inch nominal size fits standard Schedule 40 pipe fittings and valves of the same diameter. It is a common replacement or extension component in water distribution lines, boiler piping, and natural gas or propane supply runs where a short threaded connection is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code or International Fuel Gas Code as applicable.
