  • Proposition 65 notice discloses regulated chemical content

2-1/2" Schedule 40 Galvanized Nipple

This 11-inch galvanized steel nipple connects two female-threaded fittings in water, gas or air lines. The Schedule 40 wall thickness suits standard residential and light-commercial pressure requirements. It is supplied new and ready for threading or wrench installation.

Threaded pipe connection limits

Tapered NPT threads seal by metal-to-metal contact and require pipe compound or tape for leak-free joints. Over-tightening can split the fitting or strip the threads, so hand-tight plus one to two turns is the practical limit. The 11-inch length fixes the centre-to-centre spacing and cannot be adjusted after assembly.

Schedule 40 wall rating

The Schedule 40 designation defines the wall thickness and resulting pressure rating for this 2-1/2-inch nominal size. Selecting a different schedule changes the working pressure and the internal diameter, so the system design must specify Schedule 40. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to the galvanized coating.

Questions about this item

How do I choose between the 356-195E nipple and other sizes?

The 356-195E is a 2-1/2 inch diameter, 11 inch long Schedule 40 galvanized nipple. Select this exact model when your piping requires that specific diameter, length and wall thickness.

What does the Schedule 40 rating mean once the nipple is installed?

Schedule 40 defines the wall thickness for 2-1/2 inch pipe. It determines the pressure rating and flow capacity you can expect in a standard water or air system.

What threading standard does the galvanized nipple use and what does it limit?

The nipple uses standard NPT taper threads for 2-1/2 inch pipe. This thread form caps the maximum working pressure to the Schedule 40 rating for that size.
