Pipe nipple for air, gas, oil and steam lines

This 1/2 in nominal black steel nipple connects threaded components in Schedule 40 piping systems. It handles air, natural gas, non-potable water, oil and steam in industrial and commercial installations. The electric-resistance welded construction meets Schedule 40 dimensions for standard pressure service.

Threaded Schedule 40 fitting for welded steel

Both ends carry standard pipe threads so the nipple joins directly to other Schedule 40 fittings, valves or equipment without adapters. The 5 in overall length provides a fixed spacing between connected parts. Black coating protects the steel surface during handling and assembly.

Rated 300 psi at 150 °F and 150 psi steam at 350 °F

Maximum operating pressure reaches 300 psi at 150 degrees Fahrenheit for general fluid service. Steam duty is rated at 150 psi at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. The 53/64 in outside diameter and welded seam contain pressure without leakage under normal conditions.
