1/2 in Sch 40 Carbon Steel Pipe Nipple

This 5 ft carbon steel pipe nipple features 1/2 in MNPT threads on both ends for threaded connections. It is built to Schedule 40 wall thickness and carries a galvanized coating for corrosion resistance. The welded construction suits air, gas and potable water lines in residential or light commercial plumbing.

Pressure headroom up to 1715 psi

Rated for 1715 psi at 650 °F, the nipple handles typical municipal water pressure and low-pressure steam with ample margin. It operates continuously between -20 °F and 600 °F, so it covers seasonal temperature swings. Gravity-fed systems are not recommended because the fitting compatibility is Class 150.

Class 150 fitting compatibility decides fit

The nipple mates with Class 150 threaded fittings only; it will not seal against higher-class flanges or compression couplings. Inside diameter is 5/8 in and outside diameter is 27/32 in, so confirm mating component dimensions before installation. No other pipe class or fitting type is supported by this design.

Questions about this item

Will the 1/2 in nominal pipe size with 27/32 in outside diameter thread into my existing Class 150 galvanised fittings?

Yes, the nipple is built to Class 150 compatibility and the 1/2 in MNPT threads match standard galvanised fittings of the same class.

How can I confirm the nipple is holding pressure after installation?

Pressurise the system up to the 1715 psi rating at 650 Degrees F and check every joint for leaks; no weeping means the weld and threads are sound.

Does the 5 ft TBE nipple come with any sealant or gaskets, or must I buy them separately?

The box contains only the galvanised carbon steel nipple; thread sealant, tape or gaskets for the Class 150 connections are not included and must be purchased separately.
