SKU CH-71RN-AFQ7H

Connects air, gas or potable water lines with a corrosion-resistant Schedule 40 steel nipple rated to 300 psi

  • Corrosion-resistant galvanized coating protects air, gas and potable water lines
  • Schedule 40 steel rated for 300 psi at 150 °F operating pressure
  • Electric resistance welded construction ensures leak-free joints
  • 1/8 inch NPT threads fit standard Schedule 40 fittings
  • Three-inch overall length suits tight plumbing runs

1/8″ Schedule 40 Galvanized Steel Nipple

This 1/8-inch nominal pipe size nipple is made from welded steel with a galvanized finish for corrosion resistance. It suits air, gas and potable water lines in residential and light-commercial plumbing. The 3-inch overall length fits tight runs where a short threaded connection is needed.

Male NPT threads on both ends

Both ends carry male NPT threads so the nipple joins two female-threaded fittings directly. The electric-resistance weld and Schedule 40 wall handle 300 psi at 150 degrees F for water and 150 psi at 350 degrees F for steam. Galvanized coating protects the steel during everyday exposure to moisture.

Replaces worn or corroded short nipples

Use this nipple when an existing 1/8-inch Schedule 40 connection shows leaks, thread damage or rust. The jump is worth it if the system operates near the rated pressure or temperature limits and a fresh galvanized surface restores reliable sealing. Not suited for lines requiring larger diameters or higher pressure classes.

Questions about this item

What pressure can the 1/8" MNPT nipple handle at 150°F?

The Schedule 40 nipple is rated for 300 psi at 150 Degrees F and 150 psi steam at 350 Degrees F.

What thread sealant works with the 13/32" outside diameter?

Use PTFE tape or pipe dope rated for galvanized steel on the male NPT threads before tightening into a Schedule 40 fitting.

How do you install the 3" welded nipple without stressing the joint?

Thread both ends hand-tight, then turn each side one to two full turns with a wrench; over-tightening cracks the electric-resistance weld.
