Value Collection MSCNB07020 Black Pipe Nipple 1-1/4x2 Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSCNB07020 is a Schedule 40 black steel pipe nipple used to create short threaded connections in piping systems. Measuring 1-1/4 inches in diameter and 2 inches in length, this welded steel nipple features male NPT threads on both ends for straightforward inline or close-coupled connections. It is a standard close nipple used in gas, water, and steam distribution lines across residential and commercial applications. At 0.8 pounds, it is a compact, heavy-duty fitting suited for plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors working with black iron piping systems.

This nipple is commonly installed in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, and natural gas distribution lines where short-run threaded pipe connections are needed. The Schedule 40 wall thickness makes it appropriate for standard-pressure service in both new construction and retrofit installations. It is sold individually and is a drop-in replacement for any standard 1-1/4 inch Schedule 40 black iron pipe nipple of equivalent length.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure service in gas and water systems
• Welded steel construction provides consistent wall integrity throughout the fitting
• Male NPT threads on both ends for direct inline connections
• Black finish typical for gas and steam piping applications
• Compact 2-inch length suits tight-clearance and close-coupled installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with any standard 1-1/4 inch Schedule 40 black iron threaded piping system using NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable local mechanical and plumbing codes, including IFGC requirements for gas piping. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before threading. Shut off and depressurize the supply line fully before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can damage threads or crack fittings downstream.
