Zoro Select 1/2 in NPT Steel Pipe Nipple

This Zoro Select pipe nipple is a steel fitting with 1/2 in NPT threads on both ends and an overall length of 61/2 in. It is built for conveying air, gases, non-potable water and oils in plumbing and industrial systems. The welded construction and black anodized finish provide durability in demanding environments. The nominal pipe size is 1/2 in with an outside diameter of 27/32 in.

Suits installers needing a 150 psi rated steel

The fitting handles a maximum operating pressure of 150 psi and a maximum steam pressure of 150 psi at 360 Degrees F, making it suitable for standard pressure lines. It is not intended for potable water systems or applications exceeding the stated pressure and temperature limits. Buyers who require a different thread size, a longer or shorter length, or a material other than Grade B steel should look at alternative fittings.

Critical spec is 1/2 in NPT thread size

The thread standard and overall length determine whether this nipple matches the existing piping layout. Verify that both ends require 1/2 in NPT connections and that the 61/2 in centre-to-centre dimension fits the assembly. The Grade B steel material and 150 psi pressure rating are fixed characteristics that must align with the system design requirements.

Questions about this item

What size female NPT fittings must I already have to connect this 1/2 in NPT pipe nipple?

You need female NPT fittings with a 1/2 in nominal pipe size to match the nipple's male threads on both ends.

Will the 27/32 in outside diameter thread into my existing 1/2 in NPT couplings?

Yes, the 27/32 in outside diameter is the standard OD for 1/2 in NPT pipe, so it threads into any matching 1/2 in NPT coupling.

How can I confirm the nipple is holding pressure after installation?

Pressurise the system up to 150 psi for air, gases, non-potable water or oils and check for leaks at the threaded joints.
