Value Collection 0114100 Black Steel Pipe Nipple Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0114100 is a black steel pipe nipple designed for use in threaded pipe assemblies across plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. Manufactured from welded steel to Schedule 40 wall thickness, this nipple measures 1-1/2 inches in diameter and 10 inches in length. It accepts standard 1-1/2-inch NPT threads on both ends and weighs 2.125 pounds. Black pipe nipples like this one are commonly used in gas distribution lines, steam systems, and general-purpose fluid conveyance where corrosion protection is not the primary requirement. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this component.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving natural gas, propane, steam, or water lines where Schedule 40 wall thickness meets code requirements. It fits standard 1-1/2-inch threaded fittings including elbows, tees, couplings, and valves. Welded construction provides consistent wall integrity throughout the length of the nipple, making it appropriate for moderate-pressure service in typical trade piping scenarios.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness for moderate-pressure service in standard piping applications
• Welded steel construction provides uniform wall consistency along the full length
• 1-1/2-inch NPT threads on both ends for compatibility with standard threaded fittings
• 10-inch length suits close-quarter and standard-offset pipe runs
• Black steel finish appropriate for gas, steam, and general-purpose fluid lines

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component compatible with standard 1-1/2-inch NPT threaded pipe fittings used in Schedule 40 threaded piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IFGC requirements when used in gas service. Shut off the gas or water supply and depressurize the line before beginning work. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service type to all threaded connections. Do not overtighten threaded joints, as this can crack fittings or compromise the thread engagement.
