4" x 8" Schedule 40 Black Nipple

This 4-inch by 8-inch Schedule 40 black nipple connects two female-threaded pipe ends in plumbing installations. It is intended for installers who need a straight, male-threaded section of standard wall thickness.

Schedule 40 wall thickness and 8-inch length

The Schedule 40 wall provides the pressure rating expected for standard residential and commercial water, gas and oil lines at this diameter. The 8-inch overall length gives a fixed spacing between fittings; longer runs require a coupling and additional pipe.

California Proposition 65 chemical warning

The product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for a chemical known to cause cancer and a chemical known to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. Installers should follow local safety practices and wear appropriate protective equipment when cutting, threading or handling the fitting.

Questions about this item

Will the 4" x 8" Schedule 40 black nipple thread directly onto my existing Schedule 40 black iron fittings?

Yes, the nipple follows standard NPT threading for Schedule 40 pipe, so it will connect to matching Schedule 40 black iron fittings of the same nominal size.

How can I confirm the nipple is seated correctly after installation?

Check that threads are fully engaged with no visible gaps, then pressurise the system and inspect each joint for leaks.

Does the package include thread sealant or gaskets, or must I buy them separately?

The nipple is supplied alone; you will need to purchase pipe-thread sealant or PTFE tape separately to make a watertight seal.
