Red brass offers solid corrosion resistance in water, steam, and general-purpose plumbing applications. The BSPT thread form uses a tapered profile that creates a pressure-tight seal as the fitting is torqued into the mating port. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of nipple to extend or transition threaded pipe runs in a wide range of fluid-handling systems. This nipple meets OSHA standards for workplace safety compliance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, compressed air lines, and general industrial fluid service where BSPT thread engagement is required. The 4-inch overall length makes it a close nipple alternative when a moderate extension is needed between two threaded fittings or equipment ports. Because BSPT is a British Standard Pipe Taper thread, this fitting is specifically intended for systems using that thread form rather than NPT. Verify thread standard compatibility before installation to avoid mismatched engagement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRed brass construction provides corrosion resistance in water, steam, and mild chemical service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded on both ends for straightforward installation between two female-threaded ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBSPT tapered thread form creates a pressure-tight mechanical seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-inch overall length suits moderate pipe extension needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets OSHA standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch iron pipe size for compatibility with standard 3\/4-inch BSPT fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in 3\/4-inch BSPT threaded piping systems. BSPT thread form is not interchangeable with NPT; confirm that mating fittings, valves, or equipment ports are rated for BSPT before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service fluid to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten; use a pipe wrench with a backup wrench on the mating fitting to avoid stressing connected equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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\u003eIron Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreading\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded on Both Ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: OSHA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.356 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40173300\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: MERIT BRASS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2012-400BSPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541767258418,"sku":"2012-400BSPT","price":49.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f8faf426d232a638ec4c1551df14e94e.jpg?v=1785884443","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-2012-400bspt-brass-pipe-nipple-3-4-in-bspt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
