Value Collection NG09090 Pipe Nipple 2 in 9 in Sched 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NG09090 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple designed for use in threaded pipe assemblies across plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. At 2 inches in nominal pipe size and 9 inches in length, it is manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness and threaded on both ends per ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 standards. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for both indoor and moderate-exposure outdoor applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this nipple as a close-tolerance connector between fittings, valves, or equipment where a short, rigid steel run is required.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, gas distribution, heating systems, and general industrial piping. Its Schedule 40 wall thickness makes it appropriate for standard-pressure water, steam, and gas service lines where a rigid steel connection is specified. The 2-inch nominal size accommodates higher-flow applications such as main supply runs, boiler connections, and large-diameter fixture branches. Installation typically takes place during rough-in or when replacing a corroded or damaged nipple in an existing threaded assembly.

Key Features

• 2-inch nominal pipe size, 9 inches in length for a rigid, fixed-length connection
• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure service
• Threaded on both ends per ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 for leak-resistant assembly
• Galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in wet and moderate-exposure environments
• Meets multiple international standards including ASTM A53, ASTM A106, ASTM A733, DIN 2440, and ISO 7/1
• Weighs 2.69 pounds for straightforward handling during installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for 2-inch threaded Schedule 40 steel pipe systems using standard NPT fittings, valves, and couplings.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable IPC and IFGC codes for the intended service. Shut off the water or gas supply and depressurize the line before removing any existing nipple. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Tighten using pipe wrenches to a snug, leak-free fit and inspect for leaks before returning the system to service.
