It measures 3 inches in diameter and 5 inches in length, with NPT threads on both ends for a secure mechanical joint. The black finish indicates a standard mill coating suitable for gas, steam, and other industrial fluid applications. At 5.96 pounds, this is a heavy-wall fitting built for demanding service conditions where standard or extra-strong schedules are insufficient. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors are the primary installers of this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSchedule 160 nipples are used in residential and commercial installations where elevated pressure ratings are required. Common applications include natural gas distribution lines, steam piping, hydraulic systems, and industrial process lines. The 3-inch diameter makes this fitting appropriate for main distribution runs rather than branch lines. It is installed using threaded joints and pipe-grade thread sealant or PTFE tape in compliance with applicable mechanical codes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 160 heavy-wall construction for elevated pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch nominal pipe diameter, 5 inches in length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack mill finish suitable for gas, steam, and industrial fluid lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPT threaded both ends for standard pipe assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeighs 5.96 pounds, indicating substantial wall thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 3-inch Schedule 160 threaded black steel piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the International Plumbing Code or International Fuel Gas Code. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly and tighten to a firm, leak-free connection using a pipe wrench. Do not overtighten, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 160\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.96 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded (NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANVIL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0332842806\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543092887858,"sku":"0332842806","price":350.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cb95c7b0e5643be20c1912a08b881dca_6156236c-784b-4fa6-8e92-dba50076bb60.jpg?v=1785915304","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/anvil-0332842806-black-steel-pipe-nipple-3x5-in-sch-160","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
