At 72 inches overall length with a 1-1\/2 inch NPT thread standard, this nipple serves as a long-run connector between fittings, valves, or equipment ports. Red brass construction provides improved resistance to dezincification compared to standard yellow brass, making it suitable for water service and other corrosive media. The part weighs 17.28 pounds. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this size and material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis pipe nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing installations requiring a full-length 72-inch threaded run. Typical applications include water supply lines, HVAC hydronic systems, compressed air distribution, and general-purpose pipe assemblies where NPT-threaded connections are specified. The 1-1\/2 inch diameter and extended length make it appropriate for main distribution runs rather than short close-nipple connections. The red brass material is commonly specified in potable water and mechanical room piping where dezincification resistance is a code or design requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull threading on both ends for direct connection to NPT fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e72-inch overall length suits long-run piping assemblies without coupling joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed brass construction resists dezincification in water service applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-1\/2 inch NPT thread standard matches common pipe fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUNSPSC Code 40173300 for procurement and catalog classification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard-replacement or new-installation pipe nipple for systems using 1-1\/2 inch NPT threaded fittings, valves, and equipment connections in plumbing, HVAC hydronic, and general mechanical piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before cutting in or replacing any nipple in an active system. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as red brass fittings can be damaged by excessive torque.\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: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIron Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 72 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: 17.28 pounds\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: 2024-7200\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541364834610,"sku":"2024-7200","price":732.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/919a8c936871f3129ecd5bde8559d5b2_47cd5592-fc94-4c39-80df-2e096ddb58e9.jpg?v=1785873620","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-2024-7200-pipe-nipple-72-in-1-1-2-npt-red-brass","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
