Msi Products Inc A28700243.0 Galvanized Pipe Nipple Sch 40

Product Description

The MSI PRODUCTS INC A28700243.0 is a Schedule 40 hot-dip galvanized carbon steel pipe nipple with threads on both ends, designed to connect two female-threaded fittings and extend a run within a piping system. The nipple is manufactured from ASTM A53 Grade B welded steel pipe, providing reliable pressure performance across a rated range of 700 to 3000 PSI. Threads are cut to ASME B1.20.1 standard and the nipple complies with ASTM A733 for dimensional and quality consistency. Full lot traceability is maintained, with material test reports available upon request. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as a standard component in threaded piping assemblies.

This nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, mechanical, and industrial piping applications where a short threaded extension between two female-port fittings is required. The 1-1/2 inch nominal pipe size and 3 inch length make it a common choice for branch connections, riser extensions, and fixture drops in water supply, steam, and gas distribution systems where Schedule 40 wall thickness and galvanized corrosion protection are specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable IPC and IFGC provisions for threaded steel pipe. De-energize, isolate, and fully depressurize the piping system before making or breaking any threaded connection. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly and tighten using properly sized pipe wrenches. Inspect threads for damage before installation and do not use a nipple with cracked or deformed threads.
