Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION XNB06030 is a black steel pipe nipple designed for use in high-pressure piping systems where a durable, close-tolerance fitting is required. Measuring 1 inch in diameter and 3 inches in length, this nipple is manufactured to Schedule 80 wall thickness, making it suitable for demanding commercial and industrial plumbing and gas distribution applications. The seamless construction meets ASTM A106 and ASTM A53 standards, and threads are cut to ANSI B1.20.1 and ASME B1.20.1 specifications. The black finish is standard for gas service and non-potable fluid lines. Lead-free construction supports compliance with applicable plumbing codes.

This nipple is commonly used in residential and commercial plumbing, mechanical rooms, gas supply lines, and industrial process piping. It is suited for connecting threaded fittings, valves, and pipe sections in systems that require Schedule 80 wall strength. Typical installers include licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians working on gas or liquid service lines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) as applicable. Shut off the gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before threading or removing any fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can damage the fitting or mating component.
