The B&K 583-045HN is a 1/2-inch diameter by 4-1/2-inch length black steel Schedule 40 pipe nipple, engineered for strength, durability, and versatility in a wide range of plumbing, gas, and industrial applications. As part of the ProLine Series, this nipple is manufactured to meet ASTM and ASME standards, ensuring consistent quality and performance.

Constructed from high-quality black steel, this nipple is ideal for transporting non-potable fluids and gases such as lubricants, oils, greases, LP gases, natural gases (e.g., nitrogen, oxygen), steam, and diesel. Its Schedule 40 wall thickness provides robust pressure resistance, while the precision-machined MIP threaded ends ensure a secure, leak-resistant connection with black malleable iron fittings.
