Black Pipe Nipple Schedule 40

This Schedule 40 black pipe nipple connects air, gas, non-potable water, oil or steam lines in industrial and commercial plumbing systems. Its continuous-weld steel construction meets Grade A specifications and is manufactured in the USA for reliable service in demanding piping installations.

Pressure Ratings and Sizing

The nipple handles a maximum operating pressure of 300 psi at 150 Degrees F and a maximum steam pressure of 150 psi at 360 Degrees F. With a nominal size of 2 1/2 in, an outside diameter of 2 7/8 in and an overall length of 5 1/2 in, it fits Schedule 40 fittings but does not suit higher-pressure or larger-bore requirements.

Black Anodized Finish

The black anodized coating provides corrosion resistance for the listed fluid applications without adding separate sealing compounds. No additional accessories or software are included, so installers must supply compatible Schedule 40 fittings and thread sealant for each joint.

Questions about this item

Will the 2-1/2 inch Schedule 40 steel nipple thread onto my existing black iron pipe?

How can I verify the nipple is rated for my 300 psi air system at 150 degrees F?

The maximum operating pressure is stamped as 300 psi at 150 degrees F, and the maximum steam pressure is 150 psi at 360 degrees F, confirming the rating for your application.

Does the nipple come with thread sealant or do I need to buy pipe dope separately?
