Measuring 1\/2 inch nominal pipe size and 2 inches in length, this Schedule 40 nipple is threaded on both ends per ANSI\/ASME B1.20.1 standards, making it a direct-fit close connector between fittings, valves, and pipe runs. The galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance suited to wet and moderately corrosive environments. It is a standard stocking component for licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians who work with threaded black or galvanized iron systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is used in residential and commercial applications wherever a short threaded connection is needed between two pipe fittings or between a fitting and a valve. Typical uses include water supply rough-in, hydronic heating connections, gas piping manifolds, and compressed-air distribution headers. The 1\/2 inch size is one of the most common nominal sizes in light commercial and residential mechanical work. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 5 units, making it practical for service vans and job-site replenishment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for standard-duty threaded service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreaded on both ends per ANSI\/ASME B1.20.1 for reliable sealed joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGalvanized steel construction resists corrosion in wet installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets multiple standards including ASTM A53, ASTM A106, ASTM A733, and DIN 2440\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch nominal pipe size — one of the most stocked sizes in plumbing and HVAC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.11 pounds — easy to carry multiples in service stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard stocking nipple for 1\/2 inch NPT threaded pipe systems following ANSI\/ASME B1.20.1 thread standards, compatible with standard Schedule 40 threaded fittings, valves, and couplings used in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC, and gas piping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in jurisdictions governed by the International Plumbing Code or International Fuel Gas Code. Always shut off the water, gas, or system pressure supply and depressurize the line before disassembling or adding threaded connections.
