Measuring 3 inches in diameter by 6 inches in length, this nipple provides a reliable, corrosion-resistant connection in both liquid and gas service applications. The all-brass construction delivers durability in environments where steel would corrode, making it a standard choice for licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on potable water, hydronic heating, and light industrial systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pipe nipple is suited for residential and commercial installations requiring a 3-inch threaded connection. Common applications include connecting pipe runs to flanged equipment, extending valve assemblies, and making up close-coupled connections in mechanical rooms. At 3 inches by 6 inches, this is a heavy-duty nipple appropriate for main distribution lines and larger branch takeoffs rather than small-diameter domestic supply work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAll-brass construction resists corrosion in water and compatible gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch diameter accommodates large-bore plumbing and mechanical system connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-inch body length provides clearance for wrench makeup on both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded ends allow direct connection to standard NPT fittings, valves, and equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeighs 3.90 pounds, consistent with full-weight brass stock\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 for 3-inch NPT piping systems using standard brass threaded components.\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 IPC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before makeup. Do not over-torque brass fittings, as brass threads can gall or crack under excessive force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches x 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.90 pounds\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: 2148-600\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233565114674,"sku":"2148-600","price":152.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307633272.jpg?v=1780103350","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-2148-600-brass-pipe-nipple-3-x-6-inches","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
