3-Inch Galvanized Steel Pipe Nipple

This 3-inch nominal pipe size nipple is made from Grade B steel with a galvanized coating for corrosion resistance. It features male NPT threads on both ends and a welded construction rated for Schedule 40 pressure classes. The fitting suits air, gas, non-potable water and oil distribution systems.

Installers needing a 3-inch threaded connector

The nipple handles up to 150 psi at 150 degrees Fahrenheit for fluids and 150 psi at 360 degrees Fahrenheit for steam. It is not rated for potable water service, so plumbers working on drinking-water lines should select a different material. Builders requiring other diameters or pressure ratings must choose alternative fittings.

Ready-to-install threaded fitting

The galvanized finish protects the steel during storage and service without additional coating work. Both ends arrive threaded to MNPT standards, allowing direct assembly into compatible female fittings. No gaskets, sealant or extra hardware are included in the package.

What size pipe wrench do I need for the 3 inch NPT threads?

How can I verify the weld seam is sound after threading it into my system?
