Value Collection 03R1007200RTTM Black Pipe Nipple Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 03R1007200RTTM is a black steel pipe nipple sized at 1 inch nominal diameter and 72 inches in length, manufactured to Schedule 80 wall thickness using welded construction. The heavier Schedule 80 wall provides increased pressure capacity compared to Schedule 40, making this nipple appropriate for demanding fluid and gas distribution applications. At 12.91 pounds, this is a full-length close-cut nipple used to extend or connect threaded pipe runs. The black finish is applied after fabrication and is standard for gas and industrial piping systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting.

This pipe nipple is suited for residential and commercial gas distribution lines, industrial fluid conveyance, and mechanical room piping assemblies where a long threaded extension is required between fittings or equipment connections. The 72-inch length allows technicians to span larger gaps without adding unions or additional fittings. It is commonly installed in boiler rooms, industrial plants, and commercial HVAC mechanical rooms where Schedule 80 pipe is specified by the engineer or authority having jurisdiction.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure ratings compared to Schedule 40
• Welded construction for consistent wall integrity along the full 72-inch length
• 1 inch nominal pipe size with standard NPT-compatible threaded ends
• Black finish suitable for gas, steam, and industrial fluid service
• Full 72-inch length reduces need for additional couplings in long pipe runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation fitting for 1 inch Schedule 80 threaded black steel pipe systems in plumbing, gas, and industrial piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the International Plumbing Code or International Fuel Gas Code. Always shut off the gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before threading or replacing any nipple. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before making up connections. Do not over-torque threaded joints; use a pipe wrench with a backup wrench on the mating fitting to avoid stressing downstream connections.
