A close pipe nipple is very short with threaded ends that meet at the center with little to no unthreaded section.
Also referred to as a “running nipple”, it is the most compact pipe nipple.
It is the go-to solution when two fittings must be connected with almost no gap between them.
Our close black carbon steel nipples have a characteristic dark oxide surface finish that provides basic corrosion resistance.
They are produced in strict conformance with ASTM A733 and ASME B1.20.1 thread standards.

The main difference between a close nipple and a standard pipe nipple is the exposed pipe body length.
A standard pipe nipple has visible unthreaded pipe, while a close nipple is almost completely threaded.
This design reduces the installation distance between fittings and makes it more compact.

A long nipple (also known as a barrel nipple) is a pipe nipple with an extended unthreaded center section between two externally threaded ends. The exposed center section provides a practical grip point for tools during installation and allows precise spacing between connected fittings. Unlike close nipples, long nipples offer flexibility in pipeline layout where a specific distance must be maintained between two threaded connections.
Our long black steel nipples are cut and threaded from black carbon steel pipe, offering the same robust performance as our other nipple types with the added benefit of adjustable center length.
Custom lengths can be produced to meet specific project requirements.

Q: What does “black” finish mean on pipe nipples?
A: Black pipe nipples have a black sand blast surface applied to the center body, providing basic surface protection and a clean appearance. Unlike galvanized nipples, they are not intended for direct water contact or outdoor exposed applications.
Q: Are black pipe nipples suitable for gas lines?
A: Yes. Black carbon steel pipe nipples are the standard choice for natural gas and propane distribution lines in residential and commercial installations, as galvanized coatings can flake and cause issues in gas systems.
Q: Can I order mixed sizes in one shipment?
A: Yes, we support mixed-size orders and container-load shipments combining multiple sizes and specifications.
Q: What is the difference between black and galvanized pipe nipples?
A: Black nipples are used primarily for gas, steam, and industrial applications. Galvanized nipples have a zinc coating for corrosion resistance and are preferred for water supply and outdoor use.
