Measuring 1-1\/4 inches in diameter and 2 inches in length, this short nipple ships with threaded ends for direct connection into fittings, valves, or other threaded components. Weighing 1 pound, it is a solid, close-tolerance fitting suited for demanding liquid or gas service lines. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically spec Schedule 160 nipples in industrial, commercial, and heavy mechanical applications where elevated pressures require thicker pipe walls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is appropriate for use in high-pressure plumbing, steam, hydraulic, and process piping systems. The black finish indicates an uncoated carbon steel construction, making it a common choice for gas distribution, fire suppression headers, and industrial process lines. At 1-1\/4 inches nominal pipe size and a 2-inch working length, it fits into tight spaces where a close nipple would be too short but a longer nipple would create unnecessary span. It is well-suited for commercial mechanical rooms and industrial plant piping where Schedule 160 is specified by the engineer of record.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 160 wall thickness for elevated-pressure service beyond standard and extra-heavy ratings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/4 inch nominal pipe size with NPT threaded ends on both sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2 inch overall length fits confined piping runs and close-coupled assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish carbon steel construction for gas, steam, and industrial process lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 pound weight confirms solid, full-wall construction without filler or coating buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for Schedule 160 threaded piping systems using 1-1\/4 inch nominal pipe size fittings and valves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing any existing fitting or nipple. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before hand-tightening and then wrench-tightening the connection. Inspect threads for damage before installation and never force a cross-threaded joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 160\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish \/ Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 586-020S160BC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694736081202,"sku":"586-020S160BC","price":35.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cb7c6db382503772e2bcf1ff40fd09c0.jpg?v=1788327843","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-586-020s160bc-black-pipe-nipple-sch-160","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
