Value Collection MSCNB06001 Black Steel Pipe Nipple Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSCNB06001 is a Schedule 40 black steel pipe nipple designed for threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing, gas, and industrial piping systems. It measures 1 inch in diameter and 1-1/2 inches in length, making it a close nipple suitable for tight-clearance connections. The welded construction provides consistent wall thickness and structural integrity across the fitting. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this nipple where a short male-threaded connector is needed between fittings, valves, or tapped ports. The black steel finish indicates this is not galvanized, which is the correct choice for certain gas line applications where galvanized coatings are restricted.

This pipe nipple is used in residential and light commercial plumbing, natural gas distribution piping, steam systems, and general industrial fluid transport. The 1-inch nominal size is a common diameter in both supply and branch-line configurations. The 1-1/2-inch body length suits applications where minimal spacing between fittings is required. It is threaded on both ends per NPT standards and fits standard Schedule 40 malleable iron and steel threaded fittings.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure threaded pipe service
• Welded construction for uniform wall integrity
• Black steel finish — suitable for gas piping where galvanized is not permitted
• 1 inch nominal diameter with NPT threads on both ends
• 1-1/2 inch body length for close-clearance installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard component for Schedule 40 threaded steel pipe systems using 1-inch nominal NPT fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Plumbing Code, or the International Fuel Gas Code where gas service applies. Shut off gas or water supply and verify the line is fully depressurized before disassembling any threaded joint. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope rated for the intended service medium before making up the connection. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as black steel nipples can crack at the threads under excessive force.
