This fitting is used to connect threaded pipe runs in gas, air, and fluid distribution systems where heavier wall construction is required. Built from seamless steel and conforming to ASTM A106 and ASTM A53 standards, it delivers reliable pressure performance in demanding trade applications. The threaded ends comply with ANSI B1.20.1 and ASME B1.20.1 for standard NPT fitment. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of nipple as part of supply and distribution piping assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping installations where Schedule 80 wall thickness is specified. Common applications include natural gas supply lines, compressed air distribution, steam piping, and water systems requiring NPT threaded connections at 1\/4 inch size. The black steel finish makes it appropriate for gas service applications where galvanized fittings are not permitted by local code.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure ratings compared to Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeamless steel construction per ASTM A106 and ASTM A53\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPT threads conforming to ANSI B1.20.1 and ASME B1.20.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free material composition\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack steel finish suitable for gas service where codes prohibit galvanized fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 2-inch length for close-quarter connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard NPT-threaded Schedule 80 black steel pipe nipple for use with 1\/4 inch threaded pipe fittings, valves, and couplings in gas, air, and fluid piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, IFGC requirements for gas service, or IPC requirements for plumbing applications. Shut off the gas or fluid supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly; do not over-tighten, as Schedule 80 fittings can crack if torqued beyond fitting specifications. Inspect threads for damage before installation and replace any fitting that shows signs of cross-threading or corrosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Seamless\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Free\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI B1.20.1, ASME B1.20.1, ASTM A106, ASTM A53\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.08 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: XNB02020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692521849138,"sku":"XNB02020","price":18.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/279ed79ae883b32c4796bed90f697042.jpg?v=1788298821","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-xnb02020-black-steel-pipe-nipple-1-4x2-sch-80","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
