Anvil 2 1/2" NPT Steel Pipe Nipple

This seamless steel pipe nipple handles air, gases, non-potable water and oils in plumbing and industrial systems. The 4-inch length connects two female NPT fittings with a 2 1/2-inch nominal bore. Black anodised coating protects the surface. It is manufactured in the USA and ships new from the supplier.

Thermals Noise Power

Maximum operating pressure reaches 1,000 psi at 150 degrees Fahrenheit and steam pressure is rated at 300 psi at 550 degrees Fahrenheit. The seamless steel construction contains pressure without welded seams that could leak under thermal cycling. No moving parts generate noise or draw power during normal operation.

Build Quality Connectors

NPT threads on both ends provide a standard taper seal for steel piping systems. The 2 7/8-inch outside diameter matches schedule dimensions for 2 1/2-inch nominal pipe. Seamless manufacture and black anodised finish resist corrosion in harsh fluid environments. This item is restricted from sale in certain states.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 2 1/2" NPT steel pipe nipple and what step is often missed?

Apply thread sealant to the NPT threads, hand-tighten, then wrench-tighten one to two turns; the step often missed is using a pipe wrench on the flats only to avoid crushing the 2 7/8" outside diameter.

What maintenance or replacement will the seamless steel nipple need later?

Inspect the black anodized finish and threads periodically for corrosion or leakage; replace the nipple if the 1,000 psi pressure rating at 150°F can no longer be maintained.

What limit appears first under sustained use of the steel pipe nipple?

The 300 psi steam pressure limit at 550°F is reached before the 1,000 psi air, gas, oil or non-potable water rating at 150°F.
