Value Collection XNB05035 Black Steel Pipe Nipple Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION XNB05035 is a Schedule 80 black steel pipe nipple designed for use in high-pressure and high-temperature piping systems where wall thickness and structural integrity matter. Measuring 3/4 inch in diameter and 3-1/2 inches in length, this nipple is manufactured from seamless steel with a black finish coating. It meets ANSI B1.20.1, ASME B1.20.1, ASTM A106, and ASTM A53 standards, making it suitable for demanding plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this component.

This pipe nipple is appropriate for residential and commercial piping runs where Schedule 80 wall thickness is specified. Common applications include steam, gas, and water distribution systems. The 3/4-inch thread size conforms to ANSI and ASME standards, allowing straightforward integration into standard threaded fittings and valves. The black finish is typical for gas and steam service lines in mechanical rooms and utility spaces.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and IFGC or IPC requirements. Shut off all supply lines and relieve system pressure before removing or installing pipe nipples. Use pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium. Avoid over-torquing threaded connections, which can crack fittings or damage threads.
