Value Collection 14007 Black Pipe Nipple 1/8 in Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 14007 is a Schedule 80 seamless black pipe nipple used to connect threaded pipe runs in plumbing, gas, steam, and industrial piping systems. Measuring 1/8 inch in diameter and 4-1/2 inches in length, this nipple features male NPT threads on both ends for direct connection to compatible fittings, valves, or pipe sections. The black finish is standard for gas and steam service applications. The heavier wall thickness of Schedule 80 construction provides greater pressure tolerance compared to Schedule 40, making it appropriate for higher-demand service conditions handled by licensed plumbers and pipefitters.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial gas distribution lines, steam systems, compressed air lines, and general industrial pipe assemblies where a 1/8 inch threaded connection is required. It is commonly installed as a close extension between a valve and a fitting, or to extend a threaded outlet to a working position within a piping assembly. The seamless construction eliminates weld seams, which is preferred in pressure-sensitive and corrosive service environments.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 seamless construction for increased wall thickness and higher pressure tolerance
• 1/8 inch pipe size with 4-1/2 inch overall length for short-run connections
• Male NPT threads on both ends for standard threaded assembly
• Black finish suited for gas and steam piping service
• Seamless build eliminates weld-seam weak points in pressure applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/8 inch Schedule 80 seamless black pipe nipple compatible with any MNPT x MNPT threaded fitting, valve, or coupling of matching pipe size in gas, steam, compressed air, or industrial fluid piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes. Always shut off and depressurize the piping system before threading or removing any nipple. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male NPT threads before assembly, and tighten to the fitting manufacturer's recommended engagement — do not over-torque threaded connections. Confirm system pressure ratings are within the design limits of all installed components before restoring service.
