1/8" x 2-1/2" Black Pipe Nipple Schedule 40

This new ZORO SELECT pipe nipple is a Schedule 40 black steel fitting designed for threaded plumbing connections. It features male NPT threads on both ends and is manufactured to ASTM A-53 Type E Grade B and ASTM A-733 standards. The welded construction uses electric resistance weld pipe weld type for structural integrity.

Suitable for standard pressure plumbing

This nipple suits installers needing a 300 psi pressure rating at 150 degrees Fahrenheit or 150 psi working steam pressure. It is not for systems requiring higher pressure ratings or different nominal pipe sizes than the 1/8 inch specified. Buyers needing alternative materials or connection types should look at other fittings.

Threaded MNPT x MNPT connection type

The single specification that decides fitment is the male NPT thread on both ends matching the mating components. The nominal 1/8 inch pipe size with 25/64 inch outside diameter and 1/16 inch wall thickness must align with the existing piping system. Verify thread compatibility before installation.

Questions about this item

How hot does the 1/8" Schedule 40 nipple get when carrying 300 psi steam all day?

The fitting is rated for 150 psi saturated steam at the same 150 °F limit, so surface temperature follows the fluid temperature inside the pipe.

What thread sealant or tape is required for the MNPT ends on this nipple?

Both ends are male NPT threads; standard PTFE tape or pipe dope rated for 300 psi service is applied before assembly.

Will this 1/8" black steel nipple thread directly into older galvanized fittings?

Yes, the MNPT x MNPT threads match the same nominal 1/8" pipe size used on legacy galvanized or black iron fittings.
