Value Collection 01L14720 Black Pipe Nipple 1-1/2 X 72 in Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01L14720 is a black steel pipe nipple designed for threaded piping systems in commercial and residential plumbing, HVAC, and industrial gas distribution applications. Measuring 1-1/2 inches in diameter and 72 inches long, this full-length nipple is manufactured from Schedule 40 welded steel and finished with a standard black coating. At 27.2 pounds, it is a heavy-duty fitting intended for permanent installation by licensed plumbers or pipefitters where a long, threaded run is required between fittings or fixtures. The 1-1/2-inch thread size on both ends conforms to standard NPT threading conventions.

This nipple is suited for use in low-pressure steam, natural gas, compressed air, water, and hydronic heating distribution lines where Schedule 40 wall thickness is specified. It is commonly installed in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, and industrial facilities as part of a larger threaded pipe assembly. The 72-inch length reduces the number of couplings needed on extended runs and is a practical choice where long straight sections are required between valved or flanged components.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness provides standard pressure-rated structural integrity for common piping applications
• Welded steel construction delivers consistent dimensional tolerances along the full 72-inch length
• Black finish coating protects the exterior surface during storage and typical service conditions
• 1-1/2-inch NPT thread size on both ends for compatibility with standard threaded fittings, valves, and couplings
• 72-inch length minimizes joint count on long straight runs, reducing potential leak points

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install component for standard 1-1/2-inch NPT threaded piping systems using Schedule 40 black steel pipe in plumbing, HVAC, gas, or industrial applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before cutting into or disassembling any existing piping. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before making up threaded connections. Support the nipple at adequate intervals per code to prevent sag or stress on connected fittings.
