In-Store Exclusive

This one's worth the trip to the store.

Brands like Weber, Milwaukee, Yeti, and DeWalt restrict where their products can be sold online — and for good reason. In-store buyers get authentic products, full manufacturer warranty, and access to pricing that simply isn't allowed to be advertised on the web.

  • Authorized dealer network · Full manufacturer warranty & support
  • Guaranteed authentic · No counterfeits, no gray-market resellers
  • The brands set these standards · Be wary of sellers who don't follow them

Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

Anvil 1/8 in. MPT Galvanized Steel 5 in. Nipple is a compact, durable pipe fitting designed to extend threaded connections with reliability in plumbing projects and DIY setups. With a galvanized finish and steel construction, this nipple resists corrosion and stands up to everyday use in a variety of environments.

Featuring a precise 1/8 in MPT threaded end, this 5-inch nipple provides a secure, leak-resistant connection to compatible fittings. The 5-inch length offers flexibility for tight spaces or bridging components in small-diameter piping runs. A low average lead content of less than 0.25% adds a level of safety for assemblies where lead content is a consideration, aligning with common practices for metal fittings.

Key benefits

  • Corrosion-resistant galvanized finish on sturdy steel for longevity in both indoor and light outdoor uses.
  • 1/8 in MPT threading precisely sized to fit standard fittings and ensure dependable connections.
  • 5-inch length provides room to maneuver and fit in restricted spaces or extend piping runs.
  • Low lead content with average lead under 0.25%, supporting safer assemblies where permitted by local codes.
  • Trusted brand Anvil, known for practical, serviceable pipe fittings.

Ideal uses and scenarios

Use this nipple to extend 1/8 in MPT connections in residential or commercial piping projects. It’s suitable for attaching valves, meters, or other small-diameter piping components in fluid-handling systems where threaded connections are appropriate and permitted by code. The galvanized finish helps resist corrosion in everyday service environments, making it a reliable choice for a range of light-duty applications.

Installation tips

  • Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads to prevent leaks. Use 2–3 wraps in the direction of tightening for an effective seal.
  • Ensure Threads are clean and-free of debris before assembly to promote a tight, leak-free connection.
  • Avoid overtightening; turn until snug and then give a small additional turn, then test the joint for leaks after installation.

Their Counter
Try local first · we'll wait

The stores we send you to are local and independently run — often for generations, the kind of place where someone behind the counter knows the regulars. We don't own them. We just think they deserve the foot traffic. They can put most of what we sell on their next truck. Ask there before you check out here.

About our directory. National Hardware Group is an independent retailer and directory. The local stores we list and link to are separately owned and operated — we have no ownership stake in any of them, and most pay us nothing to be included. That includes plenty of stores flying a co-op banner that people don't realize are locally owned and run, not operated by a corporation. Store owners can choose to upgrade their listing for an enhanced presence or pickup features, but the base directory is free, and inclusion is never a paid endorsement.
