1/4 in Schedule 40 Steel Nipple

This 1/4 inch male NPT steel pipe nipple is built to Schedule 40 dimensions for standard plumbing and fluid-transfer tasks. It suits installers who need a short, threaded connector for air, gases, non-potable water or oil lines. The black coated finish identifies the fitting for typical industrial use.

Welded Construction and Pressure Ratings

The electric resistance welded seam provides a continuous steel wall without mechanical joints. It withstands 300 psi at 150 degrees F for liquid service and 150 psi at 350 degrees F for steam. These ratings define the safe operating envelope for the listed fluids.

1 1/2 in Overall Length and 17/32 in OD

The 1 1/2 inch overall length bridges tight gaps between female threaded ports in compact assemblies. The 17/32 inch outside diameter matches Schedule 40 geometry for compatible fittings. It is not suited for potable water systems or applications exceeding the stated pressure and temperature limits.

Questions about this item

Does the welded steel nipple need any scheduled maintenance or replacement intervals?

No scheduled maintenance is required; the electric-resistance welded steel nipple lasts until inspection shows corrosion or thread damage.

What pressure limit is reached first when the fitting runs continuously at 150 °F?

The 300 psi maximum operating pressure at 150 °F is the governing limit for air, gases, non-potable water or oils.

How hot does the nipple get and does it add noise when fluid flows all day?

The steel body assumes the fluid temperature up to 350 °F for steam or 150 °F for other media; it adds no mechanical noise.
