2-1/2" x 12" 316 SS Pipe Nipple

The Legend Valve 316-196 is a 2-1/2 inch by 12 inch pipe nipple manufactured from 316 stainless steel for hydraulic system applications. It suits industrial and commercial installations that require corrosion-resistant piping components. The product is supplied new and carries California Proposition 65 warnings for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

Thread size and material compatibility

Before ordering, verify that the 2-1/2 inch nominal size and thread pattern match the existing fittings in your hydraulic circuit. Confirm that 316 stainless steel is compatible with the fluids, pressures and temperatures present in your system. The Proposition 65 notices indicate the presence of listed chemicals, so review local safety and handling requirements.

Sustained pressure and corrosion resistance

Under continuous hydraulic pressure the 316 stainless steel construction maintains structural integrity and resists corrosion from aggressive media. The material withstands prolonged exposure without the degradation seen in short-term burst tests. Long-term performance depends on correct installation, fluid compatibility and adherence to the system design pressure limits.

Questions about this item

Does the Legend Valve 316-196 nipple ship with any gaskets or thread sealant, or must those be purchased separately?

The nipple is supplied as a single 316 stainless steel piece measuring 2-1/2" x 12". Gaskets, sealant tape or thread compound are not included and must be sourced separately to complete the hydraulic connection.

When should I select the 316 stainless version instead of a lower-grade steel nipple for my hydraulic system?

Choose the 316 stainless steel nipple when the fluid or environment demands high corrosion resistance, such as with aggressive chemicals, saltwater exposure or sanitary hydraulic circuits where 316 alloy performance is specified.

How does the 12-inch overall length affect installation in a standard hydraulic manifold?

The 12-inch centre-to-centre span provides a fixed rigid link between two female NPT ports. Verify that the manifold port spacing matches this dimension before ordering, as the nipple cannot be shortened without re-threading.
