Value Brand 462-120GR 3/8" MNPT x 12" TBE Red Brass Pipe Nipple Sch 40

SKU CH-7ZW1-R8FQD

A 12-inch red brass pipe nipple with MNPT threads on both ends, rated to 1088 PSI at 300 degrees F

  • Red brass resists corrosion for long service life
  • Schedule 40 wall handles 1088 PSI at up to 300 °F
  • MNPT threads on both ends simplify installation
  • 12 inch length spans common plumbing gaps
  • Meets ANSI B1.20.1 and ASTM B687 standards

Threaded Red Brass Nipple

This 12 inch pipe nipple features male NPT threads on both ends and is made from red brass for corrosion resistance. It suits plumbing installations that require a straight, rigid connection between two female-threaded fittings. The Schedule 40 wall thickness provides standard pressure containment for water, air and compatible fluids.

Pressure and Temperature Limits

The nipple is rated to 1088 PSI from minus 20 up to 300 degrees Fahrenheit and can withstand temperatures up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit at reduced pressure. Operation beyond these limits may cause leakage or structural failure. The ANSI B1.20.1 thread standard ensures compatibility with matching NPT components.

Nominal Size and Thread Type

The decisive specification is the 3/8 inch nominal pipe size combined with male NPT threads on both ends. Buyers who need a different diameter, a female-threaded end or a longer or shorter overall length must select another part. This nipple will not fit 1/2 inch or 1/4 inch threaded ports.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 12 inch length or a different size for my 3/8 inch nominal pipe?

This nipple is 12 inches overall with 3/8 inch nominal pipe size and 43/64 inch outside diameter. Select the length that matches your required centre-to-centre distance.

What does the 1088 PSI rating mean when the fitting is installed in a working system?

The 1088 PSI rating applies from -20 to 300 degrees F. At higher temperatures up to 450 degrees F the allowable pressure will be lower.

How does the MNPT thread standard and Schedule 40 wall affect what I can connect?

Both ends use MNPT threads to ANSI B1.20.1. The Schedule 40 wall and red brass material meet ASTM B687 for standard plumbing connections.
