Manufactured to ASTM B687-88\/B456 material specifications, this 1-1\/4 inch nominal size nipple measures 3 inches in overall length and features male threaded connections on both ends. Red brass offers strong resistance to corrosion from water, heat, salt water, acids, minerals, and peaty soils. The relative softness of the metal promotes a tight, reliable seal and makes the fitting easier to thread and install in tight spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for commercial, OEM, and plumbing applications where a durable, corrosion-resistant threaded connection is required. Typical uses include connecting pipes in potable water systems, steam lines, gas distribution, and oil service lines. The male-threaded-by-male-threaded configuration allows it to serve as a close or short extension between two female-threaded fittings or valves. It is sold in a packaging quantity of 10 per box, making it practical for contractors stocking multiple fittings on a job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeamless red brass construction meets ASTM B687-88\/B456 material specification\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for use in standard-pressure plumbing and mechanical systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMale threaded x male threaded ends for direct connection between female-threaded components\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eResists corrosion from salt water, acids, minerals, peaty soils, and heat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMetal softness promotes tight thread seal and simplifies installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackaged 10 per box for jobsite and shop stocking convenience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated for commercial, plumbing, OEM, water, oil, gas, and steam applications.

Shut off and isolate the system and relieve all pressure before removing or installing any fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as red brass threads can be damaged by excessive torque due to the relative softness of the metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize A\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize B\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 S\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male Threaded x Male Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Red Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM B687-88\/B456\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProcess\u003c\/strong\u003e: Seamless\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Commercial, Plumbing, OEM, Water, Oil, Gas, Steam\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 Per Box\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: 2120-300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51467593744690,"sku":"2120-300","price":30.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/313946671.jpg?v=1783907384","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-2120-300-red-brass-nipple-1-1-4-x-3-inches","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
