The nipple measures 3 inches overall length with a 1\/2-inch outside diameter and carries a 1\/2-inch BSPT (British Standard Pipe Taper) thread form on each end. Red brass construction provides solid corrosion resistance in water, low-pressure gas, and general plumbing service. This part meets OSHA standards and is suited for installation by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on systems that specify BSPT threading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is used in residential and light commercial piping applications where BSPT thread form is specified, including imported equipment, hydraulic assemblies, instrumentation lines, and cross-standard fittings. The 3-inch overall length makes it appropriate for close-coupled connections where a longer nipple is not needed. Plumbers and mechanical contractors working with British-standard threaded components or imported equipment will find this a direct fit for standard BSPT female-threaded ports and adapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreaded on both ends for direct in-line connection between BSPT fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed brass construction resists corrosion in water and low-pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch BSPT thread form for compatibility with British Standard Pipe Taper fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-inch overall length suits close-coupled and short-run piping layouts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets OSHA standards for use in compliant piping installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1\/2-inch BSPT female-threaded fittings, valves, and ports. BSPT is a tapered thread standard and is not interchangeable with NPT threads without an adapter. Verify that mating components are rated for BSPT before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter. Shut off system pressure and depressurize the line before removing or installing any nipple. Apply thread sealant rated for the service medium to BSPT threads per manufacturer and applicable code requirements. Do not use NPT fittings on BSPT threads without a rated conversion adapter, as thread form differences can result in leaks under pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Red Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: BSPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreading\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded on Both Ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIron Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.194 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: OSHA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40173300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MERIT BRASS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2008-300BSPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540145963314,"sku":"2008-300BSPT","price":32.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/59644511b53931a66b3df76dc6ba94cf.jpg?v=1785847038","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-2008-300bspt-brass-pipe-nipple-3-in-1-2-bspt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
