There is no reason why it wouldn't. Just use pipe joint compound on the threads. Contrary to what the other answerer said galvanized pipe shouldn't be used for gas because the gas causes the zinc to flake off and stop up the burners, etc. For gas use black iron. Very seldom is galvanized pipe used in homes today because over time the inside will oxidize and will clog the lines. Check the following web site: http://www.keidel.com/mech/pvf/pipe-galvanized.htm

Galvanized pipe is for water, black pipe is for gas, don't get them mixed up. Of course galvanized is threaded for valves, it Will work, use Teflon tape or putty for the threads.

It depends. Galvanized pipe is usually for gas. What exactly are you trying to do?
