1/4" MNPT Threaded Pipe Nipple

This 12-inch galvanized steel nipple features male NPT threads on both ends for connecting threaded fittings or equipment. It is manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness using electric resistance welded construction. The fitting is rated for a maximum working pressure of 500 psi in compatible piping systems.

Suits low-pressure water, air, or oil lines

Installers joining two female-threaded components in plumbing, compressed air, or hydraulic circuits will find this nipple matches the required 1/4-inch nominal size and Schedule 40 specification. It is not intended for systems exceeding the 500 psi pressure rating or for potable water applications due to the Proposition 65 chemical warning.

Verify thread compatibility and pressure rating

Confirm that the mating fittings use 1/4-inch NPT threads and that the system operating pressure stays within the 500 psi limit. Check local codes for galvanized steel use restrictions and ensure the 12-inch overall length fits the available space between connection points.

Questions about this item

What threaded fittings do I need to connect this 1/4" MNPT nipple into my existing pipe run?

You need female NPT fittings on each side — such as couplings, elbows or valves — that match the 1/4" male threads on both ends of this nipple.

Will the 12-inch overall length and Schedule 40 wall thickness fit alongside the older galvanized pipe I'm keeping in place?

Yes, the 12-inch threaded length and standard Schedule 40 dimensions are made to join directly with existing 1/4" galvanized pipe of the same schedule.

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

Pressurise the system up to the 500 psi rating and check each threaded joint for leaks; the electric-resistance-welded seam and galvanized coating are designed to hold that pressure without weeping.
