At 8 inches overall length with 1-1\/4 inch BSPT (British Standard Pipe Taper) threading, this nipple is suited for international and specialty piping applications that call for BSPT thread form rather than standard NPT. Red brass construction provides excellent resistance to dezincification and corrosion, making it appropriate for water, steam, and moderate-pressure service. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is commonly used in residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, compressed air, and industrial piping systems requiring BSPT-threaded connections. The 1-1\/4 inch iron pipe size suits main branch lines and equipment connections where higher flow capacity is needed. BSPT thread is frequently specified in imported equipment, European systems, and certain industrial machinery, making this part a practical solution when standard NPT fittings are not compatible with the installed hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRed brass construction resists dezincification and corrosion in water and steam service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBSPT (British Standard Pipe Taper) threading on both ends for compatibility with BSPT-threaded fittings and equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 inches overall length accommodates longer offset and extension requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/4 inch iron pipe size provides adequate flow capacity for branch and equipment connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFull threading on both ends allows flexible engagement depth with mating fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with BSPT-threaded fittings, valves, and equipment in 1-1\/4 inch pipe size.

Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing pipe nipples. Use appropriate thread sealant rated for BSPT threads and the specific service fluid. Do not cross-thread or overtighten, as red brass can be damaged by excessive torque applied without a torque reference from the system designer or fitting manufacturer.\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 Taper)\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\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: 1.7 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: 2020-800BSPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539508330802,"sku":"2020-800BSPT","price":97.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8a02ea255cb0cc27cc0af71c24441762_aebab6e8-b6b2-4a54-91d0-23407ee25f41.jpg?v=1785842157","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-2020-800bspt-brass-pipe-nipple-1-1-4-bspt-8-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
