It measures 3\/8 inch nominal pipe size by 5 inches in length and is manufactured to Schedule 40 standard wall specifications. The hot-dipped galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for both wet and dry service environments. Lead content on wetted surfaces is controlled to no more than 0.25 percent weighted average, meeting requirements for potable water applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in new construction and retrofit piping assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, gas distribution, and general mechanical piping. Its 3\/8 inch size fits standard threaded fittings, valves, and couplings across a wide range of system configurations. The Schedule 40 wall thickness handles typical working pressures found in domestic water and low-pressure gas lines. It is commonly used as a close-to-medium length connector between fittings, valves, or equipment ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHot-dipped galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 standard wall thickness for typical working pressure ratings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASTM A53 standards for welded steel pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead content limited to 0.25 percent maximum on wetted surfaces, suitable for potable water use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded ends compatible with standard NPT fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard stock fitting for 3\/8 inch NPT threaded piping systems in residential and commercial plumbing and mechanical applications.\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 local plumbing codes and ASME B31 piping standards. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-torque threaded connections on galvanized nipples, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\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: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Welded Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hot-Dipped Galvanized\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A53\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Lead Content (Wetted Surfaces)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 percent weighted average\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.244 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\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: ASC Engineered Solutions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8700148607\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51345037066546,"sku":"8700148607","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547517.jpg?v=1782048267","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700148607-galvanized-pipe-nipple","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
