Boshart NIPGL8 Galvanized Steel Pipe Nipple, Threaded

Boshart NIPGL8 Galvanized Steel Pipe Nipple, Threaded

The Boshart NIPGL8 galvanized steel pipe nipple is built for rough-in and extended-run plumbing and piping applications where a longer or standard threaded connection is required between fittings, valves, or equipment. This nipple family is available across a range of sizes, including 1" x 18", 1" x 24", 1" x 30", 1" x 36", and 1" x 48" in 1" nominal pipe size, as well as 2" x 18", 2" x 24", 2" x 30", 2" x 36", and 2" x 48" in 2" nominal pipe size. Manufactured from galvanized steel for corrosion resistance, every nipple in the line is threaded on both ends to mate with standard NPT threaded fittings, valves, and connections in the matching trade size. Longer lengths in the range are well suited for applications where a standard short nipple will not span the required distance, reducing the number of couplings needed in a threaded pipe run, while shorter lengths handle tighter rough-in spans.

Key Features

• Trade Size Range: Available in 1" and 2" nominal pipe sizes for direct compatibility with standard threaded plumbing and piping systems in either size class.
• Length Range: Lengths span from 18" up to 48" across the family, allowing a single-piece connection tailored to the specific rough-in distance and reducing the need for additional couplings in longer runs.
• Durable Construction: Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for extended service life in rough-in plumbing and piping installations.
• Threaded Connection: Both ends are threaded (NPT) for direct connection into standard threaded fittings, valves, and equipment in the matching trade size.
• Rough-In Ready: Designed for behind-the-wall and under-floor installation as part of a larger threaded pipe assembly, not a finished/visible fixture component.
• Consistent Sizing Across the Line: Each length option in a given trade size shares the same 1" or 2" NPT thread connection, simplifying selection when matching existing piping runs.
