Value Collection 01L10720 Black Steel Pipe Nipple Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01L10720 is a black steel pipe nipple designed for use in threaded pipe assemblies across plumbing, HVAC, gas distribution, and industrial piping systems. This nipple measures 1 inch nominal diameter and 72 inches in length, constructed from welded Schedule 40 steel with a black finish coating. At 10.08 pounds, it provides the wall thickness and strength required for standard-pressure applications. A licensed plumber or pipefitter installs this nipple as a threaded extension or connector between fittings, valves, or equipment in a wide range of service environments.

This pipe nipple is suited for residential and commercial installations where a full-length threaded or plain-end nipple is required. Common applications include gas supply lines, steam systems, hydronic heating loops, fire suppression piping, and general industrial fluid conveyance. The 72-inch length makes it particularly useful in runs where longer threaded connections are needed without additional coupling points. Both ends accept standard 1-inch NPT fittings.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure service in plumbing and gas applications
• Welded steel construction for consistent strength along the full pipe length
• Black finish coating suitable for gas line and general industrial use
• 1-inch nominal diameter with 1-inch NPT thread size on both ends
• 72-inch length reduces need for intermediate couplings in longer runs
• 10.08 pound weight reflects full Schedule 40 steel wall thickness

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or extension nipple for 1-inch Schedule 40 threaded pipe systems using NPT fittings in plumbing, gas, steam, and hydronic applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Plumbing Code, or the International Fuel Gas Code as appropriate to the service. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Apply a listed pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.
