2 inch x 5 inch Galvanized Steel Nipple

2" x 5" Galvanized Steel Nipple – Built for Structural Integrity and System Compatibility

The 2" x 5" Galvanized Steel Nipple is designed for consistent performance in high-demand piping systems. Manufactured from carbon steel with a protective zinc coating, this nipple delivers superior corrosion resistance and mechanical strength in both indoor and outdoor installations. Its full-length threading on both ends ensures compatibility with standard NPT connections, making it a reliable component in pressure and non-pressure pipe assemblies.

Contractor-Grade Performance

• ✅ Hot-Dip Galvanized Coating – Provides a robust barrier against oxidation, chemical exposure, and moisture intrusion.
• ✅ Threaded Male Ends – Precision-cut threads for secure connections and reduced risk of leakage under load.
• ✅ Pressure-Capable – Suitable for moderate-pressure water, steam, and air systems within plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical applications.
• ✅ Temperature Tolerance – Capable of withstanding a wide temperature range, making it ideal for hot and cold water supply systems.

Technical Specifications

• Material: Schedule 40 carbon steel, hot-dip galvanized
• Nominal Size: 2 inches
• Length: 5 inches
• Thread Type: ANSI B1.20.1 NPT (National Pipe Thread) Male x Male
• Compliance: Manufactured to ASTM A733 and ASTM A53 standards

Installation Guidance

This nipple is designed for professional installations where system integrity is critical. Thread sealing compounds or PTFE tape are required to prevent joint leaks. Torque should be applied according to thread size and service pressure to avoid thread deformation or cracking during installation.

Applications

Commonly used in industrial and commercial plumbing systems, this galvanized steel nipple is ideal for water distribution, compressed air lines, heating circuits, and process piping where galvanic protection and durability are required.

Note

Galvanized steel fittings should not be used in potable water systems where lead-free compliance is mandatory, unless specifically certified as lead-free.
