Value Collection XNB09050 Black Steel Pipe Nipple 2x5 Sch 80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION XNB09050 is a Schedule 80 black steel pipe nipple designed for threaded pipe systems in commercial and industrial plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping applications. Measuring 2 inches in diameter and 5 inches in length, this nipple is manufactured from seamless and welded 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 pressure and high-temperature service where code compliance is required. The 2-inch NPT thread size allows straightforward integration into standard threaded piping assemblies.

This nipple is used in residential and commercial gas lines, steam systems, industrial process piping, and fire suppression headers where Schedule 80 wall thickness is specified for added pressure capacity. It is a common component in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, and utility installations. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC mechanical contractors regularly use Schedule 80 nipples in locations requiring heavier wall construction than Schedule 40 permits.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard component for 2-inch threaded steel pipe systems requiring Schedule 80 fittings in plumbing, gas, and mechanical piping installations.

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 gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service before threading the nipple into fittings. Inspect threads for damage before installation to ensure a leak-free connection.
