Brass Pipe Nipple for Plumbing Installations

The Smith-Cooper 4385012970 is a brass pipe nipple designed for plumbing systems requiring a 1-1/2 inch MNPT threaded connection. It serves installers and maintenance teams joining two female-threaded components in water or gas lines. The Schedule 40 wall thickness suits standard pressure requirements in residential and commercial piping.

Sustained Pressure and Corrosion Resistance

Brass construction provides reliable performance under continuous system pressure without the degradation seen in shorter test bursts. The material resists corrosion from water exposure over extended periods, maintaining seal integrity at the 11 inch length. Schedule 40 rating confirms suitability for typical operating pressures encountered in permanent installations.

Threaded Connection Limits

The MNPT threads conform to standard taper specifications, creating a seal through thread interference rather than a gasket. Proper engagement requires compatible female NPT fittings and appropriate thread sealant to prevent leakage. The 11 inch overall length fixes the centre-to-centre distance between connected components, limiting layout flexibility in tight spaces.
