Value Collection NB06100 Sch 40 Black Steel Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NB06100 is a Schedule 40 black steel pipe nipple designed for threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing, gas distribution, and industrial piping systems. Measuring 1 inch in diameter and 10 inches in length, this nipple provides a reliable threaded connection between fittings, valves, and other pipe components. The black steel construction offers strength suitable for higher-pressure applications, and the threaded ends conform to ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 standards for consistent fit with standard NPT fittings. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple in both new construction and repair work across a range of fluid and gas conveyance systems.

This pipe nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, gas supply lines, and general industrial piping. Its Schedule 40 wall thickness makes it appropriate for moderate-pressure service. The 10-inch length fills gaps between fittings where close or short nipples would be insufficient, giving installers flexibility in layout and routing. Compatible with standard threaded iron and steel fittings that meet NPT thread specifications per ANSI/ASME B1.20.1.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Plumbing Code, or the International Fuel Gas Code where applicable. Shut off the fluid or gas supply and depressurize the system before beginning any pipe work. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, and do not overtighten connections to avoid thread damage. Verify system pressure ratings and service conditions before placing the assembly into service.
