SKU CH-DZMX-H6G7J

A 3-inch by 5-1/2-inch Schedule 40 galvanized nipple for plumbing connections

  • 3" diameter fits standard Schedule 40 piping
  • 5-1/2" length suits common connection spacing
  • Galvanized coating resists corrosion in water lines
  • E-Series design meets Legend Valve quality standards
  • California Prop 65 warning discloses regulated chemical content

Product identity

This Legend Valve nipple is a 3" x 5-1/2" Schedule 40 galvanized pipe fitting designed for plumbing installations. It serves installers and maintenance teams who need a standard threaded connector for water or gas distribution systems. The component is supplied new and carries California Proposition 65 warnings for chemicals linked to cancer and reproductive harm.

Interface limits

The fitting uses tapered pipe threads compatible with Schedule 40 dimensions, so it matches standard NPT connections in the same nominal size. Thread engagement depth and pressure rating follow the Schedule 40 class, limiting use to the pressures that class defines. No proprietary seal or flange system is present, so sealing relies on conventional thread tape or compound.

Capacity and headroom

The 3" bore and 5-1/2" length suit typical runs between fittings, valves or equipment in commercial and residential pipework. Galvanised coating provides corrosion resistance for water service, but the material is not rated for aggressive chemical exposure or temperatures beyond standard plumbing ranges. Installers needing longer reach or higher pressure classes must select a different fitting.

Questions about this item

How do I choose the correct Schedule 40 galvanized nipple for my piping layout?

Select the 356-209E model when your design calls for a 3-inch diameter by 5-1/2-inch length Schedule 40 galvanized nipple; the part number identifies the exact size and wall thickness required.

What does the Schedule 40 rating mean once the nipple is installed in a plumbing system?

Schedule 40 indicates the wall thickness standard for this galvanized nipple, determining its pressure-handling capacity and mechanical strength in a typical water or gas distribution line.

Which pipe thread standard applies to the 356-209E nipple and what does it limit in practice?

The nipple uses standard NPT tapered threads for 3-inch nominal pipe size, which caps the connection to matching NPT fittings and limits the joint to the pressure rating of Schedule 40 galvanized steel pipe.
