Southland 565-030NI 1"x3" Schedule 40 Galvanized Steel Threaded Pipe Nipples

This listing covers galvanized steel pipe nipples from Southland Products, a pipe and fitting brand of Mueller. A pipe nipple is a short length of pipe threaded on both ends, used to join two female threaded fittings, valves or appliances or to extend a run by a fixed distance. These nipples are 1 inch nominal pipe size and 3 inches long with male NPT threads, so they mate with any NPT fitting or pipe of matching size.

The zinc galvanized coating protects the steel against corrosion, which is why galvanized nipples are specified for water, drainage and air lines, and retailer listings for this Southland 1 x 3 inch nipple also name gas and oil service. Plumbers, maintenance technicians and facility crews use them when building manifolds, connecting equipment to supply lines and making short offsets in threaded piping.

In retail listings Southland carries its 1 x 3 inch galvanized nipple under the 565-030 number with HN and HP suffixes; this record lists the part as 565-030NI.

Available from King Surplus inventory in Del Rio, Texas.
