Value Collection NG09035 Galvanized Pipe Nipple Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NG09035 is a Schedule 40 galvanized steel pipe nipple designed for threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. This nipple measures 2 inches in nominal diameter and 3.5 inches in overall length, with male NPT threads on both ends conforming to ANSI/ASME B1.20.1. The galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in exposed or moderately wet environments. Weighing 0.92 pounds, it fits standard Schedule 40 fittings and valves. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple as a close or short connector between threaded pipe components in gas, water, and steam distribution lines.

This pipe nipple is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a short threaded connection is required between fittings, valves, unions, or equipment ports. It is commonly used in domestic water supply lines, low-pressure steam systems, compressed air headers, and natural gas distribution piping where galvanized steel is the specified material. The 2-inch nominal diameter accommodates high-flow runs and is a common size in mechanical room and boiler room piping. This nipple ships in a quantity of one.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component compatible with standard Schedule 40 threaded galvanized steel pipe fittings, valves, and couplings in 2-inch nominal pipe size (NPS) configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, IPC, and IFGC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before makeup; do not overtighten, as this can crack cast fittings. Inspect threads for damage before installation and confirm the galvanized coating is intact to maintain corrosion resistance.
