Value Collection XNB02100 Sch 80 Black Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION XNB02100 is a Schedule 80 black pipe nipple designed for use in piping systems that require a heavier wall thickness and greater pressure tolerance than standard Schedule 40 fittings. Measuring 0.25 inches in diameter and 10 inches in length, this nipple features NPT-threaded ends conforming to ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 standards. It is constructed from seamless or welded steel meeting ASTM A106 and ASTM A53 material specifications. Lead-free construction makes it suitable for a wide range of fluid and gas piping applications handled by licensed plumbers and pipefitters.

This nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, steam, natural gas, and industrial piping systems where Schedule 80 wall thickness is required or specified. The 0.25-inch nominal diameter and 10-inch length make it a standard close nipple extension for connecting pipe runs or fitting assemblies. It is commonly installed in mechanical rooms, boiler rooms, and utility piping layouts where threaded black iron pipe is the standard configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code or International Plumbing Code where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply a code-approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Avoid over-tightening, which can crack fittings or distort threads.
