- Schedule 80 wall handles 2,000 psi at 150 °F
- Seamless black steel meets ASTM A106 and A733 standards

Application and Purpose
This black steel close nipple connects two female NPT ports in hydraulic, pneumatic or steam systems. It suits installers and maintenance teams who need a short, rigid link rated for high-pressure service.
Build and Connection
The Schedule 80 seamless tube has a 9/64 in wall and 53/64 in outside diameter for mechanical strength. Both ends carry MNPT threads to ANSI/ASME B 1.20.1 so the joint seals without welding or flanges.
Pressure and Temperature Limits
Rated 2000 psi at 150 degrees F and 300 psi steam at 550 degrees F per ASTM A106 and A733. The heavy wall contains pressure spikes while the steel body resists thermal cycling in normal industrial use.
