1" Galvanized Steel Pipe Nipple
This Value Brand pipe nipple is a 1-inch nominal size fitting designed for threaded plumbing connections. It serves installers and maintenance crews who need a short, straight length of pipe to join two female-threaded components in water, air, or gas lines. The Schedule 40 wall thickness suits standard-pressure applications.
Replaces worn or damaged threaded nipples
Use this nipple when an existing threaded section shows corrosion, leaks, or stripped threads that compromise the joint. The upgrade is worth it when the system operates up to the rated 500 psi working pressure and the 5-inch overall length matches the required spacing between fittings. Electric resistance welded construction provides a consistent seam for reliable service.
Verify thread type and system pressure
Confirm that both connecting ports accept male NPT threads before ordering. Check that the operating pressure of your system does not exceed the 500 psi maximum rating for Schedule 40 galvanized steel. Ensure the 5-inch installed length fits the available space between the two female-threaded fittings you are joining.
