Description
Black Schedule 40 Ready-Cut Steel Pipe Nipples
Black Schedule 40 ready-cut steel pipe nipples provide longer pre-cut threaded pipe lengths for commercial, industrial, plumbing, mechanical, air, gas-compatible, and general-purpose piping systems. Manufactured from welded carbon steel pipe with a standard black steel finish, these ASC pipe nipples provide male NPT connections on both ends while reducing the need to cut and thread longer pipe sections in the field.
This long-length ready-cut family is offered in nominal pipe sizes from 1/4" through 2", with available overall lengths from 18" through 72". Select the required size and length from the product options above. Need another length or a nipple threaded on only one end? Use the custom request form below.

Construction & Standards
Black Steel Construction
Black steel pipe nipples provide strong threaded connections for compatible commercial, mechanical, industrial, utility, air, and general-purpose piping systems. The unfinished black steel surface is intended for applications where galvanized coating is not required. Always verify material suitability for the specific system, environment, pressure, temperature, and process media.
Why Choose Ready-Cut Nipples?
Ready-cut nipples provide longer factory-prepared threaded pipe sections in commonly used lengths. They reduce field measuring, cutting, and threading while providing a convenient way to connect threaded valves, fittings, equipment, and piping assemblies.
