Value Collection 02L14180 Pipe Nipple 1-1/2 in 18 in Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 02L14180 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple designed for use in water supply, drainage, and general plumbing distribution systems. Threaded on both ends, this nipple connects sections of pipe or fittings in Schedule 40 applications where wall thickness and pressure ratings conform to standard trade requirements. At 1-1/2 inches nominal pipe size and 18 inches in length, it fits common residential and light commercial plumbing configurations. The galvanized zinc coating provides corrosion resistance in wet service environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this type of fitting.

This pipe nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing systems, including water supply lines, gas distribution (where code permits galvanized fittings), and industrial piping runs. Its Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard pressure requirements for most building plumbing applications. Both ends carry NPT threads, allowing direct connection to standard threaded fittings, valves, and couplings without additional adapters in most configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before threading or removing any fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
