At 8 inches overall length with a 1-inch BSPT thread standard, this nipple provides a reliable close or extension connection between fittings, valves, and pipe runs. Red brass construction offers improved resistance to dezincification compared to standard yellow brass, making it well suited for water service, compressed air, and low-pressure fluid applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of nipple as a standard component in both new construction and retrofit work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pipe nipple is commonly used in residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating systems, compressed air distribution, and general fluid handling piping. The BSPT thread form is a tapered British Standard Pipe thread, making this nipple appropriate for systems using BSPT-compatible fittings and valves. It is not interchangeable with NPT threads without appropriate adapters. The 8-inch length suits applications requiring a short extension between threaded components where standard close or hex nipples would be insufficient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRed brass construction for superior corrosion resistance and dezincification resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded on both ends for straightforward installation between fittings or valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-inch BSPT tapered thread standard for compatibility with BSPT piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-inch overall length provides extension capability in tight or offset piping layouts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUNSPSC Code 40173300 for simplified procurement and catalog classification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for piping systems using 1-inch BSPT threaded fittings and valves.

Shut off and depressurize the system before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service fluid before assembly. Do not cross-thread or over-torque, as red brass is softer than steel and threads can be damaged by excessive force.\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 (British Standard Pipe Tapered)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIron Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.135 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: 2016-800BSPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541063794994,"sku":"2016-800BSPT","price":76.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8a02ea255cb0cc27cc0af71c24441762_6a6fd48e-a118-4970-8186-e94fc71da9d7.jpg?v=1785868015","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-2016-800bspt-brass-pipe-nipple-1-in-bspt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
