Product Description

The LARSEN SUPPLY CO., INC. 32-1509 is a Type 304 stainless steel pipe nipple measuring 1/8 inch nominal diameter by 3 inches in length. It features male pipe thread on both ends and carries a 150 LB pressure rating.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly; do not overtighten, as stainless steel threads can gall. Follow applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements for pipe joint assembly and pressure testing.
