3/8 in Galvanized Steel Nipple

This 3/8 inch nominal pipe nipple is made from welded steel with a galvanized coating for corrosion resistance. It suits plumbers and maintenance crews who need a short, threaded connection for air, gases or potable water lines. The electric resistance weld construction and Schedule 40 wall provide reliable strength for standard piping assemblies.

Pressure Rating and Temperature Limits

The nipple handles a maximum operating pressure of 300 psi at 150 degrees F and a maximum steam pressure of 150 psi at 350 degrees F. These ratings give ample headroom for typical compressed air, gas distribution and hot water circuits. It is not suited for systems that exceed these pressure or temperature boundaries.

Questions about this item

Will the 3/8 in Schedule 40 nipple mate with my existing Schedule 40 fittings?

Yes, it is made to Schedule 40 dimensions so it threads directly into matching Schedule 40 couplings and elbows.

How can I verify the 300 psi rating at 150 °F is holding after installation?

Pressurise the line to its working pressure and inspect every joint for leaks; no weeping means the nipple and threads are sealing correctly.

Does the box include thread sealant or must I buy it separately?

Only the galvanised steel nipple is supplied; pipe thread tape or compound must be purchased separately.
