1 inch Galvanized Steel Nipple Run (Close to 6 inch)

1" Galvanized Steel Nipple – Threaded Schedule 40 for Corrosion-Resistant Pipe Connections

The 1" Galvanized Steel Nipple is a precision-machined Schedule 40 fitting designed for dependable connections in threaded piping systems. Manufactured from carbon steel and hot-dip galvanized for superior corrosion protection, this nipple is ideal for use in potable water, compressed air, and non-aggressive fluid transfer systems.

Threaded male ends allow for secure integration into both residential and commercial plumbing, mechanical, and HVAC applications. Each fitting is fabricated to meet applicable ASTM and ASME dimensional standards for consistent performance and proper system alignment.

Key Advantages for Professional Use

• ✅ Hot-Dip Galvanized Coating – Provides corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments, extending service life.
• ✅ Schedule 40 Wall Thickness – Suitable for medium-pressure systems, offering strength and flow efficiency.
• ✅ Fully Threaded NPT Ends – National Pipe Taper threads ensure a tight mechanical seal when used with thread sealant.
• ✅ Precise Machining – Manufactured to ASTM A733 and ASME B1.20.1 standards for compatibility and leak resistance.
• ✅ Versatile Installation – Suitable for indoor and outdoor plumbing runs in water distribution, air lines, and fire protection systems.

Typical Applications

This galvanized nipple is widely used in supply line extensions, branch piping, and mechanical system tie-ins. It supports multiple disciplines including plumbing, fire suppression, irrigation, and air handling installations where steel pipe is permitted or preferred by code.

Did You Know?

Galvanized nipples are often specified over black steel when the piping system may be exposed to moisture or atmospheric conditions that promote rusting. Hot-dip galvanizing bonds zinc directly to the steel, delivering a robust barrier against corrosion.

Engineered for durability and dimensional accuracy, the 1" Galvanized Steel Nipple delivers a high-performance solution for threaded connections in a variety of building and infrastructure systems. Whether you're constructing new mechanical lines or maintaining existing pipe networks, this fitting provides the longevity and reliability contractors require.
