BECK 1/4" NPT Steel Pipe Nipple

This BECK steel pipe nipple connects two female NPT fittings in a straight line. The 3-inch length suits air, gas, non-potable water and oil lines rated to 300 psi at 150 degrees Fahrenheit. Welded Grade B steel construction with a black anodized finish is made in the USA.

Installers needing a short 1/4-inch NPT spacer

Plumbers and maintenance technicians use this nipple to bridge gaps between valves, regulators or gauges in small-bore piping systems. It is not for potable water service or for systems that require a larger nominal bore or a different thread standard.

No accessories or software included

The nipple ships as a single finished fitting ready for thread sealant and installation. No gaskets, sealant, brackets or documentation are bundled, so the installer supplies any required thread tape or compound.

Questions about this item

What thread size must the existing fitting have to accept this 1/4 NPT pipe nipple?

The nipple has 1/4 NPT threads on both ends, so the mating fitting must also be 1/4 NPT.

Will this steel nipple handle the 150 psi steam pressure in my older boiler system?

Yes, it is rated for 150 psi at 360 degrees F steam service.

How can I confirm the nipple is holding pressure after I thread it in?

Pressurise the line to its 300 psi rating at 150 degrees F and check for leaks at the joints.
