Value Collection XNB05001 Black Steel Pipe Nipple Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION XNB05001 is a black steel pipe nipple designed for use in Schedule 80 threaded piping systems. Machined from seamless steel to ASTM A106 and ASTM A53 standards, this nipple measures 3/4 inch nominal diameter by 1-3/8 inches in length. Threads conform to ANSI B1.20.1 and ASME B1.20.1, ensuring consistent fit with standard NPT fittings. The black finish is standard for gas and industrial piping applications. This nipple is rated lead-free and suits installations where code compliance on lead content is required. Plumbers and pipefitters use these in commercial and industrial piping runs where Schedule 80 wall thickness is specified.

This nipple is suited for close-quarter connections in residential and commercial gas supply lines, compressed air systems, industrial fluid distribution, and similar black-iron piping assemblies. The 3/4 inch thread size is among the most common in trade work, making this nipple a standard component in repair and new-construction piping. Its seamless construction supports higher-pressure service compared to standard Schedule 40 alternatives.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for 3/4 inch NPT threaded black iron piping systems using Schedule 80 fittings and pipe.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes including IFGC and IPC. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Apply listed thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as this can crack cast fittings or distort threads.
