Value Collection XNB09001 Black Steel Pipe Nipple Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION XNB09001 is a Schedule 80 black steel pipe nipple sized at 2 inches diameter by 2 inches in length. It is constructed from seamless and welded steel with a black finish coating, meeting ANSI, ASME, and ASTM standards for industrial and commercial piping applications. This nipple is a short-run threaded connector used to join pipe sections, valves, fittings, and other threaded components in gas, water, and steam systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple as part of iron pipe assemblies in both new construction and retrofit work.

This nipple is suited for residential and commercial piping systems where Schedule 80 wall thickness is required for higher-pressure service. Typical applications include gas distribution lines, steam supply lines, and industrial fluid transfer systems. The black steel construction makes it a common choice for natural gas and propane service where galvanized fittings are not recommended. It ships individually and can be integrated into iron pipe assemblies wherever a 2-inch threaded connection is needed.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard component for Schedule 80 iron pipe systems using 2-inch NPT threaded connections in gas, steam, or fluid service applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) where applicable. Shut off the gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium to all threaded joints before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can damage the pipe threads or fittings.
