Value Collection 03R1004800RTTM Black Pipe Nipple Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 03R1004800RTTM is a Schedule 80 black steel pipe nipple measuring 1 inch in diameter and 48 inches in length. Welded construction gives this nipple the wall thickness needed for higher-pressure applications in gas, steam, and liquid piping systems. The black finish is a standard mill coating applied to carbon steel pipe for corrosion identification and light protection before installation. At 8.6 pounds, this is a full-length close nipple suited for structural and utility runs where rigid, threaded connections are required. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians working with schedule 80 black iron systems will find this an appropriate stock item.

This pipe nipple is designed for use in residential and commercial plumbing, gas distribution, steam heating, and industrial piping applications where Schedule 80 wall thickness is specified. The 48-inch length makes it useful for spanning longer distances between fittings without additional couplings. Threaded ends allow direct connection to standard NPT fittings, valves, and black iron system components. It is commonly installed in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, and utility spaces as part of gas supply lines, steam headers, or water distribution piping.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness rated for higher-pressure service compared to Schedule 40
• Welded construction throughout the pipe body for consistent structural integrity
• 48-inch length reduces the need for additional couplings in longer runs
• Black mill finish coating identifies carbon steel material and provides light surface protection
• 1-inch nominal pipe size with standard NPT-compatible threaded ends

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for Schedule 80 black iron threaded piping systems using 1-inch nominal pipe size fittings and valves.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable local codes, including IFGC requirements for gas piping or IPC requirements for water and steam systems. Shut off and depressurize the relevant supply line before threading or joining any components. Use appropriate thread sealant or pipe-thread compound rated for the specific service medium. Inspect threads for damage before installation and do not overtighten connections.
