Value Collection NG07030 Galvanized Pipe Nipple 1-1/4x3 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NG07030 is a Schedule 40 galvanized steel pipe nipple with NPT threads on both ends, sized at 1-1/4 inches nominal diameter by 3 inches in length. It is used to connect sections of pipe or fittings in water, gas, and general plumbing systems. The galvanized zinc coating provides corrosion resistance in exposed or damp environments. Plumbers and pipefitters install this nipple in both residential and light commercial applications. It conforms to ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 thread standards and meets ASTM A53 and ASTM A106 material specifications, making it suitable for pressure-rated piping systems.

This nipple fits into standard Schedule 40 threaded piping assemblies found in water supply lines, compressed air systems, and low-pressure gas distribution. It is a common component in mechanical rooms, utility connections, and rough-in plumbing work. The 1-1/4-inch nominal size is frequently used in branch lines and fixture supply runs. Compatible with standard NPT fittings, couplings, valves, and unions across residential and commercial installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with the applicable plumbing code, such as the IPC or local authority requirements. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Hand-tighten first, then wrench-tighten to a firm connection without over-torquing, which can crack fittings or strip threads. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded pipe component.
