Plumbing Nipple for Air and Water Lines
This 3/8 inch Schedule 40 pipe nipple connects air, gas or potable water lines in residential or light-commercial systems. Galvanized steel construction resists corrosion while the welded seam handles pressures up to 300 psi at 150 degrees Fahrenheit. The 3 inch overall length suits tight runs between fittings.
Threaded Ends Fit Schedule 40 Components
Male NPT threads on both ends mate directly with standard Schedule 40 couplings, elbows or valves without adapters. Electric resistance weld construction keeps the bore smooth for unrestricted flow. The 43/64 inch outside diameter matches common pipe hangers and insulation sleeves.
Replaces Corroded or Leaking Short Sections
Swap out a rusted nipple when threads strip or mineral build-up restricts flow. The galvanized coating extends service life compared to bare steel in damp environments. Not suited for steam lines above 150 psi at 350 degrees Fahrenheit or for applications requiring stainless or plastic pipe.

Questions about this item
What is the maximum operating pressure for air or water at 150 degrees F?
The nipple is rated for 300 psi at 150 degrees F for air, gases, and potable water applications.
How hot does the fitting get when steam runs through it at the rated pressure?
The maximum steam rating is 150 psi at 350 degrees F, so the surface temperature will approach that steam temperature during continuous operation.
Which thread sealant or tape works with the 3/8 inch male NPT threads?
Standard PTFE thread tape or pipe dope approved for potable water and 300 psi service will seal the 3/8 inch MNPT connections.
