SKU CH-R5FE-9EDM0

304 stainless steel nipple resists corrosion in 1-1/2 inch plumbing connections

  • 304 stainless steel resists corrosion in plumbing systems
  • 1-1/2 inch diameter fits standard pipe connections
  • 5-1/2 inch length suits typical installation spacing
  • New condition ensures clean threads and full service life
  • California Proposition 65 warning lists cancer and reproductive-harm chemicals

Material and dimensions

The Legend Valve 304-149 is a 304 stainless steel pipe nipple measuring 1-1/2 inches by 5-1/2 inches. It serves as a corrosion-resistant connector for joining two female-threaded fittings in plumbing systems. The 304 alloy provides broad chemical compatibility for water, oil and gas lines.

Use cases and limits

This fitting suits installers who need a durable, lead-free nipple for standard pressure piping. It is not intended for specialised high-purity sanitary systems or for applications requiring welded rather than threaded connections. Buyers needing different lengths, diameters or alloy grades should select an alternative part.

Capacity and headroom

The 304 stainless construction handles typical residential and commercial plumbing pressures and resists scaling across a wide temperature range. Thread engagement depth determines the maximum joint strength, so proper installation torque is essential. The nipple length provides a fixed 5-1/2 inch centre-to-centre spacing between connected components.

Questions about this item

What thread size must my existing pipe or fitting have to connect to this 1-1/2" nipple?

The nipple has 1-1/2 inch NPT threads on both ends, so the mating pipe or fitting must also be 1-1/2 inch NPT.

Will this 304 stainless steel nipple resist corrosion when joined to older galvanised or brass pipework?

304 stainless steel resists rust in most water supplies, but direct contact with dissimilar metals can cause galvanic corrosion; use a dielectric union if the system mixes metals.

How can I confirm the nipple is sealed and leak-free after installation?

Pressurise the system to its working pressure and inspect every joint — no visible water escape means the threads and sealant are holding.
