ZORO SELECT Steel Pipe Nipple 3/4" NPT

This new ZORO SELECT pipe nipple is a steel fitting with male NPT threads on both ends. It is built to Schedule 40 dimensions for use with air, gases, non-potable water and oils. The welded construction suits general-purpose piping installations.

Suited for standard pressure piping.

Installers needing a 2 1/2 inch length of 3/4 inch nominal pipe for pressures up to 300 psi at 150 Degrees F will find this part matches the requirement. It is not intended for drinking water systems or for service exceeding the listed steam rating of 150 psi at 350 Degrees F.

Maximum operating pressure 300 psi at 150 Degrees F

This pressure and temperature limit is the primary figure that determines whether the nipple fits the system design. The Schedule 40 wall thickness and electric resistance weld construction support this rating for the approved media types.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 3/4" NPT threads without causing leaks?

Wrap PTFE tape clockwise on the male threads, hand-tighten, then turn one to two full turns with a wrench; the step most people skip is the final wrench turns that seat the taper.

What maintenance or replacement will this steel nipple need over time?

Inspect the black coating for rust at the threads and weld seam; replace the nipple if corrosion appears or after any system pressure test exceeds 300 psi at 150 °F.

What is the first limit reached under sustained pressure and heat?

The 300 psi rating at 150 °F is reached before the 150 psi steam limit at 350 °F, so continuous hot-water or oil service hits the pressure ceiling first.
