Value Collection MSCNB08020 Black Pipe Nipple 1-1/2x2 in Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSCNB08020 is a Schedule 40 black steel pipe nipple used to connect threaded pipe sections in plumbing, gas, and mechanical systems. Measuring 1-1/2 inches in diameter and 2 inches in length, this short nipple features male NPT threads on both ends for straightforward inline connections. Welded construction provides a solid, consistent wall and reliable pressure performance across typical service conditions. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in residential and light commercial piping systems where black steel pipe is specified.

This nipple is suited for use in natural gas distribution lines, compressed air systems, steam lines, and general industrial or mechanical piping where black steel is an approved material. The MNPT x MNPT thread configuration makes it compatible with standard Schedule 40 black steel pipe and fittings of the same nominal size. It is a direct-connect fitting requiring no additional adapters when mating with 1-1/2-inch NPT-threaded components.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, including the IPC and IFGC where gas service is involved. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before making up the joint. Hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench to achieve a leak-free connection without over-threading. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings.
