Value Collection XNB06080 Black Pipe Nipple 1 in X 8 in Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION XNB06080 is a Schedule 80 black steel pipe nipple designed for use in pressure piping systems where added wall thickness and durability are required. Measuring 1 inch in nominal diameter and 8 inches in length, this nipple is manufactured to ASTM A106 and ASTM A53 standards and is certified lead free. Seamless and welded construction options meet ANSI B1.20.1 and ASME B1.20.1 threading specifications, making this nipple a reliable choice for plumbing, mechanical, and industrial piping runs that demand consistent thread engagement and pressure integrity.

This pipe nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, steam lines, compressed air runs, and general industrial piping applications. The Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure resistance compared to Schedule 40, making it appropriate for higher-pressure service conditions. Plumbing and pipefitting professionals use this nipple to extend or connect threaded black iron pipe runs in both above-ground and in-wall installations where code permits.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for increased pressure capacity over standard Schedule 40
• Seamless and welded construction meeting ASTM A106 and ASTM A53 standards
• Threaded to ANSI B1.20.1 and ASME B1.20.1 specifications for reliable fitment
• Lead free certified for compliant installations
• 1 inch nominal diameter x 8 inches in length

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment for 1 inch Schedule 80 threaded black iron pipe systems using NPT fittings and couplings.

Installation Notes

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