With a 5-inch overall length (OAL) and 1-inch NPT threads, this nipple bridges threaded fittings, valves, and equipment in both supply and drain configurations. The red brass construction provides good corrosion resistance in water service, and the chrome finish suits exposed installations where appearance matters. At 0.666 pounds, it is a solid, full-weight fitting. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers for this type of component.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pipe nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications including water supply lines, fixture connections, and exposed piping runs where a chrome finish is preferred for aesthetics or code compliance. It is compatible with standard 1-inch NPT fittings, valves, and fixtures. The 5-inch OAL makes it appropriate for close-coupled connections that require a short rigid extension between threaded components. OSHA compliance is noted for applicable workplace plumbing installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded on both ends with 1-inch NPT for direct connection to standard fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5-inch overall length for short, rigid piping extensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRed brass construction offers corrosion resistance in water service applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrome-plated finish suits exposed plumbing where appearance or code requires it\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOSHA-compliant for applicable workplace plumbing installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-inch outside diameter consistent with standard 1-inch iron pipe size (IPS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting compatible with standard 1-inch NPT threaded plumbing fittings, valves, and fixtures in residential and light commercial water service piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before threading or removing any fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not over-tighten threaded brass fittings, as excessive force can crack the fitting body.\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\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome-Plated\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 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 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: 0.666 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: OSHA\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: 3016-500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542158573874,"sku":"3016-500","price":62.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a85bc426db5a712a1f6e23b8c149f4ea_37de6ab6-8348-46c8-9b2f-cfdace72df8f.jpg?v=1785893999","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-3016-500-brass-pipe-nipple-1-in-npt-chrome","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
