Red brass offers excellent corrosion resistance and is well suited for fluid-handling applications where dezincification resistance matters. The BSPT (British Standard Pipe Taper) thread form is commonly specified in imported equipment, marine systems, and certain industrial piping assemblies. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this nipple as a close-tolerance connector between fittings, valves, and equipment in pressurized piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is used in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, compressed air, and light industrial fluid lines where BSPT-threaded connections are required. The 1-1\/4 inch pipe size suits main distribution runs, boiler trim connections, and equipment supply lines. It is particularly applicable where metric or import-standard equipment demands BSPT thread engagement rather than the NPT standard common in North American plumbing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10 inches OAL — full-length nipple providing rigid, gapless connection between two fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded on both ends with 1-1\/4 inch BSPT taper thread for leak-resistant sealed joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRed brass construction resists corrosion and dezincification in water and fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/4 inch iron pipe size suits main supply and distribution line applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUNSPSC 40173300 classification for procurement and catalog systems compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1-1\/4 inch BSPT-threaded fittings, valves, and equipment in plumbing, hydronic, and light industrial piping systems requiring British Standard Pipe Taper thread engagement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the IPC. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any nipple. Apply a thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service fluid and pressure — note that BSPT is a taper thread that seals on the thread form, so sealant application and engagement depth are critical. Do not cross-thread or over-torque, as brass is softer than ferrous pipe materials and threads can be damaged.\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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIron Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.42 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: 2020-1000 BSPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542375661874,"sku":"2020-1000 BSPT","price":114.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8a02ea255cb0cc27cc0af71c24441762_b5eaf5e8-3477-4482-ba1c-e5d20ec5d595.jpg?v=1785898963","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-2020-1000-bspt-brass-pipe-nipple-1-1-4-in-bspt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
