Measuring 2 inches in diameter and 3 inches in length, this Schedule 160 nipple features a heavy wall thickness suited for systems that demand greater pressure tolerance than standard Schedule 40 or 80 fittings. Both ends are threaded for straightforward connection to compatible fittings and pipe runs. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors typically install this type of nipple in gas, steam, or liquid piping assemblies where wall integrity under elevated pressure or temperature is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is well suited for residential and commercial piping installations where Schedule 160 wall thickness is specified. Common applications include high-pressure water lines, steam distribution headers, compressed air systems, and industrial process piping. The 2-inch diameter makes it a standard fit in main supply and branch line configurations. It is sold individually and is a direct drop-in component for threaded pipe assemblies requiring Schedule 160 material at a 3-inch close-to-close length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 160 heavy wall construction for elevated pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-inch nominal pipe diameter with 3-inch overall length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded on both ends for standard NPT connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack steel finish suitable for gas, steam, and industrial fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeighs 1.87 pounds for a solid, full-wall cross-section\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 black steel pipe assemblies using 2-inch nominal pipe size connections.\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, IPC, and IFGC requirements where gas service is involved. Shut off system pressure and drain the line completely before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply a code-approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the joint. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or compromise the seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 160\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.87 pounds\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: 588-030S160BC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51693621838130,"sku":"588-030S160BC","price":77.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e25d96e95afbc9059617702fc7f9a9af.jpg?v=1788315082","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-588-030s160bc-black-pipe-nipple-sch-160","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
