Red Brass Nipple for Class 300 Systems

This 1/2 in MNPT x 3-1/2 in TBE nipple fits Class 300 piping and handles air, natural gas, oil, potable water and steam. Seamless red brass construction meets ASTM B43 for corrosion resistance in commercial and industrial installations.

Schedule 80 Wall Adds Pressure Headroom

The Schedule 80 wall thickness raises the maximum operating pressure to 267 psi at 450 Degrees F and steam pressure to the same rating. It operates continuously up to 400 Degrees F and down to -20 Degrees F without derating.

1/2 in Nominal Bore Limits Flow Capacity

The 13/32 in inside diameter and 3 1/2 in overall length suit branch lines and instrument connections in 1/2 in nominal systems. It is not sized for high-volume mains or applications requiring larger bore fittings.

Questions about this item

How often will the 1/2 in red brass nipple need replacement under normal service?

The seamless ASTM B43 red brass construction resists corrosion in air, natural gas, oil, potable water and steam, so replacement is only needed if mechanical damage occurs or system pressure exceeds the 267 psi rating.

What pressure limit will be reached first during continuous steam use?

The maximum steam pressure is 267 psi at 450 °F; sustained operation above that pressure will exceed the Class 300 fitting compatibility before any other limit is met.

How much heat does the nipple radiate when carrying 400 °F steam all day?

The 13/32 in outside diameter and seamless red brass body conduct heat efficiently, so the surface will approach the 400 °F fluid temperature and require insulation for personnel protection.
