3/8" Schedule 40 Galvanized Steel Pipe Nipple
This galvanized steel nipple connects threaded components in air, gas, non-potable water, oil or steam lines. The male NPT threads on both ends suit Schedule 40 fittings. It is built for industrial and commercial piping installations. Buyers needing potable-water approved fittings should look elsewhere.
Threaded Male Ends For Direct Assembly
Each end features 3/8 inch male NPT threads that screw straight into compatible female fittings. The continuous weld construction maintains wall integrity under pressure. Installers must apply appropriate thread sealant rated for the service media. Over-tightening can distort the galvanized coating and create leak paths.
150 PSI Rating At 150 Degrees F
The nipple withstands 150 psi at elevated temperature for the listed media. Its 1/2 inch inside diameter and 43/64 inch outside diameter match Schedule 40 dimensions. Systems exceeding this pressure or temperature envelope require heavier-wall components. The 1-1/2 inch overall length offers limited make-up allowance in tight assemblies.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the 3/8" MNPT x 1-1/2" TBE nipple is seated correctly after installation?
After threading the male NPT ends into Schedule 40 fittings, pressure-test the joint up to 150 psi at 150 °F; a leak-free seal confirms the continuous-weld Grade A steel nipple is working as intended.
What comes with the nipple and what must I supply separately?
The box contains the single 3/8" nominal, 43/64" OD galvanized steel nipple; you must provide matching Schedule 40 female-threaded fittings, pipe sealant or tape, and any required valves or hangers.
Which version of this nipple should I choose for a 150 psi steam line?
Select the Schedule 40, Grade A steel nipple with galvanized coating — rated 150 psi at 150 °F — for air, gas, non-potable water, oil or steam service.
