LEGE-304-146 Stainless Steel Pipe Nipple 1-1/2 in 4 in Sch 40

Product Description

The LEGENDVALVELEGE304146 LEGE-304-146 is a 304 stainless steel pipe nipple rated at Schedule 40/Standard wall thickness. It measures 1-1/2 inches nominal diameter and 4 inches in length, making it a compact, heavy-duty threaded connector for joining sections of pipe or connecting pipe to fittings and equipment. This nipple is lead free, meeting requirements for potable water and process piping installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in both commercial and industrial systems where corrosion resistance and strength are critical.

This nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, process piping, and marine or coastal installations where stainless steel is specified to resist corrosion. The 1-1/2 inch nominal size fits standard plumbing line sizes commonly found in water distribution, drainage tie-ins, and mechanical room piping. Its SCH 40/STD wall thickness supports typical working pressures found in commercial plumbing and light industrial service.

Key Features

• 304 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet, chemical, and outdoor environments
• Lead-free design suitable for potable water systems
• Schedule 40/Standard wall thickness for full-strength threaded connections

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the water or fluid supply before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Use an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for stainless steel and the intended fluid service. Avoid over-tightening threaded connections, which can crack fittings or damage threads.
