  • Welded steel construction withstands 150 psi steam at 350 °F
  • 2 inch MNPT threads connect to standard Schedule 40 fittings

Product identity

This galvanised steel pipe nipple measures two inches nominal size and five and a half inches overall length with male NPT threads on both ends. It is intended for plumbers and maintenance crews joining Schedule 40 piping in air, gas or potable water systems.

Installation and common issues

The tapered threads seal with standard pipe compound or tape and require only hand tightening followed by a wrench turn. Over-tightening can strip the threads or crack the fitting while under-tightening leaves a leak path; debris on the threads is the most frequent cause of poor seals.

Pressure and temperature limits

The fitting is rated for 300 psi at 150 degrees Fahrenheit in liquid service and 150 psi at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for steam. Exceeding either pressure or temperature rating risks permanent deformation or rupture of the welded steel wall.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the galvanized steel pipe nipple is sealing properly after installation?

Pressurise the line to its rated 300 psi at 150 °F or 150 psi steam at 350 °F and check every joint for leaks; the electric-resistance weld and Schedule 40 wall should hold without weeping.

What comes with the nipple and what must I supply separately?

The nipple itself is supplied — 2 in nominal, 2 3/8 in OD, 5 1/2 in overall length, galvanized steel, threaded both ends — you must provide compatible Schedule 40 fittings, thread sealant and any required hangers or valves.

Which version of this Zoro Select nipple should I choose for a 2-inch Schedule 40 system?

Select the 2 in MNPT × 5-1/2 in TBE galvanized steel nipple (MPN 6P876) — it matches Schedule 40 dimensions, 300 psi water rating and the corrosion-resistant coating your system requires.
