Value Collection NG07025 Pipe Nipple 1-1/4 in Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NG07025 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple designed for threaded piping systems in plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical applications. It features NPT threads on both ends conforming to ANSI/ASME B1.20.1, making it ready for direct installation between fittings or valves without additional machining. At 1-1/4 inches nominal pipe size and 2-1/2 inches in length, this Schedule 40 nipple provides standard wall thickness suitable for pressure and flow applications typical in commercial and residential mechanical systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers for this type of component.

This nipple is used in residential and commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, compressed air, and low-pressure gas piping systems where a short threaded connector is needed between fittings, valves, or equipment ports. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for wet or humid service environments. The 1-1/4 inch size is a common nominal diameter found in main supply lines, branch runouts, and equipment connections across a wide range of mechanical systems.

• 1-1/4 inch nominal size suits common main and branch line applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for 1-1/4 inch NPT threaded piping systems using Schedule 40 steel pipe and fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the system before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before makeup. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort the thread engagement.
