It measures 12 inches overall length (OAL) with 3\/8 inch NPT threads and a 3\/8 inch outside diameter. Constructed from red brass, this nipple resists corrosion in both potable water and low-pressure gas applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting when extending or joining threaded iron pipe systems where corrosion resistance and leak-free seals are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations, including water supply lines, gas distribution piping, and compressed air systems. The 12 inch length accommodates runs that require extended reach between fittings or where closer nipples are not appropriate. NPT threads ensure compatibility with standard pipe fittings and valves across a wide range of trade applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRed brass construction for corrosion resistance in water, gas, and steam service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded on both ends with 3\/8 inch NPT for standard pipe connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12 inch OAL provides extended reach between fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOSHA compliant construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch outside diameter matches standard iron pipe size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with standard 3\/8 inch NPT threaded pipe fittings, valves, and couplings used in residential and commercial plumbing and gas piping systems.\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 IPC and IFGC codes. Shut off the water or gas supply and relieve system pressure before threading the nipple into fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as brass fittings can crack under excessive torque.\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: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIron Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 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: 0.618 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: 2106-1200\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51544529928498,"sku":"2106-1200","price":26.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ec5980be5c0c5b109d06915d010413fe.jpg?v=1785928901","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-2106-1200-brass-pipe-nipple-3-8-npt-12-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
