Value Collection XNB05060 Black Steel Pipe Nipple 3/4 X 6 Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION XNB05060 is a Schedule 80 black steel pipe nipple designed for use in high-pressure and industrial piping systems. Manufactured from seamless steel and conforming to ASTM A106 and ASTM A53 standards, this nipple measures 3/4 inch in diameter and 6 inches in length. The threaded ends comply with ANSI B1.20.1 and ASME B1.20.1 specifications, ensuring compatibility with standard NPT fittings. It is lead free and suitable for installations where code compliance and material integrity are critical. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors rely on this type of nipple for connecting pipe sections in steam, water, gas, and oil service lines.

This nipple is commonly used in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC piping, and industrial process systems. The Schedule 80 wall thickness makes it appropriate for higher-pressure applications compared to Schedule 40 pipe. It fits into standard 3/4-inch NPT threaded fittings and is a go-to component for rough-in plumbing, boiler connections, and mechanical room piping. Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness rated for higher-pressure service than standard Schedule 40
• Seamless steel construction per ASTM A106 and ASTM A53 standards
• Threaded ends conform to ANSI B1.20.1 and ASME B1.20.1 NPT specifications
• Lead free construction for use in potable water and code-compliant installations
• 3/4-inch diameter by 6-inch length for standard close-nipple and extension applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for standard 3/4-inch NPT threaded piping systems in plumbing, HVAC, steam, and industrial process applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with local plumbing codes and the IPC or IFGC where applicable. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can damage fittings or compromise the seal.
