Application & Fit
The Legend Valve 311-212 is a no-lead red brass nipple built for potable-water and hydronic systems. It serves plumbing contractors and maintenance crews who need a compliant fitting for supply lines or manifold connections. Buyers who require a different diameter, length or thread standard will not be served by this item.
Critical Specification
The fitting measures 3 inches by 8 inches and is manufactured from no-lead red brass to meet low-lead regulations. This single dimension and alloy combination determines whether the nipple matches the piping schedule and code requirements of the job.
Compliance Impact
California Proposition 65 warnings indicate the product contains a chemical known to the state to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Installers must follow local handling and disclosure rules, and the notice may restrict use in certain sensitive environments.

Questions about this item
What does the 3-inch by 8-inch size mean once it is installed in a piping system?
The 3-inch diameter matches the nominal pipe size and the 8-inch length sets the fixed spacing between connected components.
What thread standard does the 311-212 nipple use and what does it limit in practice?
It uses standard NPT threads, so the seal is made by thread taper and the pressure rating follows the red brass material limits.
What does the 311-212 nipple need to fit and mount correctly?
It requires a 3-inch NPT female opening on each side and enough straight clearance to accommodate the 8-inch body length.
