Value Collection NG01030 Galvanized Pipe Nipple 1/8 in Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NG01030 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple designed for threaded pipe systems in plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping applications. Measuring 1/8 inch nominal pipe size and 3 inches in length, this Schedule 40 nipple is threaded on both ends per ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 standards. The galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance in exposed or mildly corrosive environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting during new construction, retrofit, and repair work across residential and light commercial systems.

This nipple is suited for low-pressure threaded piping systems where a short close-to-standard length connection is required between fittings, valves, or equipment. Common applications include gas supply lines, water distribution headers, compressed air systems, and mechanical room piping. Its Schedule 40 wall thickness meets requirements for standard service pressure ratings in most residential and light commercial installations. The 1/8 inch size is frequently used for pilot gas lines, gauge ports, and instrumentation taps.
