Bmi Usa 4063 Brass Threaded Nipple 3x10 Lead Free

Product Description

The BMI USA 4063 is a lead-free brass threaded nipple designed for use in plumbing systems where code compliance and material safety are required. At 3 inches in diameter and 10 inches in length, this nipple connects threaded pipe sections in water supply, distribution, and mechanical piping applications. The brass construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in both hot and cold water service. Its red finish aids in visual identification on the job site. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of standard threaded assembly work.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations where lead-free fittings are mandated, including potable water systems subject to safe drinking water regulations. The 3-inch diameter makes it appropriate for main distribution lines and larger branch connections. It threads directly onto standard NPT-compatible fittings and valves.

• Lead-free brass construction meets potable water safety requirements
• 3-inch diameter x 10-inch length for larger-diameter threaded connections
• Weighs 7.01 pounds, indicating solid brass stock

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply thread sealant tape or compound appropriate for the service type to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as brass fittings can crack under excessive torque.
