Value Collection 01L10240 Black Steel Pipe Nipple Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01L10240 is a black steel pipe nipple designed for use in threaded pipe assemblies across plumbing, gas, and industrial piping systems. Measuring 1 inch in diameter and 24 inches in length, this nipple is manufactured from welded steel with a black finish coating and conforms to Schedule 40 wall thickness standards. The 1-inch thread size on both ends allows direct connection into standard threaded fittings, couplings, and valves. At 3.36 pounds, this is a solid, full-bodied nipple suited for permanent or semi-permanent installations. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and gas technicians are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This pipe nipple is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications including gas distribution lines, water supply runs, steam systems, and general industrial piping where Schedule 40 black steel is specified. The black finish coating is standard for gas service applications and distinguishes it from galvanized fittings used in water service. Its 24-inch length makes it useful as a close extension between fittings in tight runs or where a specific standoff distance is required in a pipe assembly.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard pressure ratings for threaded black steel pipe systems
• Welded steel construction provides consistent wall integrity along the full 24-inch length
• Black finish coating is standard for natural gas and propane distribution piping
• 1-inch NPT threads on both ends for direct connection to standard threaded fittings and valves
• 24-inch length suits extension runs and specific offset distances in pipe assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1-inch Schedule 40 threaded black steel pipe systems in plumbing, gas, and industrial piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or gas technician in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC), or the International Plumbing Code (IPC) as required by application. Shut off gas or water supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded pipe fitting. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before making up threaded joints. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can damage fittings or crack threaded ports on valves and manifolds.
