Value Collection 03R2001800RTTM Black Pipe Nipple Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 03R2001800RTTM is a Schedule 80 black steel pipe nipple used to connect threaded pipe fittings in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. It measures 2 inches in diameter and 18 inches in length, with a welded construction and a black finish coating. The heavier wall thickness of Schedule 80 provides increased pressure capacity compared to Schedule 40, making it appropriate for higher-demand applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple as a standard threaded extension between fittings, valves, and other piping components. It weighs 7.38 pounds.

This nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, steam, gas distribution, and industrial fluid transfer systems where a 2-inch threaded connection is required. The 18-inch length covers longer span connections between components without the need for an additional union or coupling. The black finish is standard for gas piping applications and non-potable water systems. It is not intended for potable water service without verification of applicable local codes.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure ratings compared to Schedule 40
• Welded construction for consistent dimensional integrity along the pipe body
• Black finish coating standard for gas and steam piping applications
• 2-inch nominal pipe size with standard NPT threads on both ends
• 18-inch body length suitable for longer span connections

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for 2-inch NPT threaded piping systems. Compatible with standard 2-inch threaded fittings, valves, and couplings used in Schedule 80 piping assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes, including IFGC requirements for gas piping. Shut off the gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before beginning any threaded connection work. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
