Manufactured from Grade 304\/304L stainless steel, this nipple meets Schedule 40 wall thickness requirements, making it suitable for moderate-pressure piping applications. The 3\/4-inch pipe size fits standard threaded fittings and pipe runs. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of nipple as a short connecting section between threaded fittings, valves, or equipment connections in both above-ground and corrosive-environment applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pipe nipple is well suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, process piping, and mechanical systems where standard carbon steel would be susceptible to corrosion. Typical installations include chemical lines, water treatment systems, food-service plumbing, and marine or coastal environments where 304\/304L stainless provides adequate resistance to oxidation and chloride exposure. The 3\/4-inch Schedule 40 sizing aligns with common NPT threaded system configurations encountered in HVAC, plumbing, and industrial piping work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 304\/304L dual-certified stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and chemically active environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for compatibility with standard NPT threaded systems at moderate working pressures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWelded construction provides consistent wall integrity along the nipple body\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch pipe size fits widely used threaded fittings, valves, and equipment connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUNSPSC Code 40173300 for procurement and classification systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard component for 3\/4-inch Schedule 40 NPT threaded piping systems using Grade 304 or 304L stainless steel pipe fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and local mechanical code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Use an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service fluid and temperature range. Do not overtighten threaded stainless connections, as galling can occur on stainless-to-stainless threads without proper anti-seize compound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304\/304L Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Welded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.19 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: 4012-4800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543363322162,"sku":"4012-4800","price":256.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d0bdd88c092a1a4f074ed0b56a459339_d4cc6556-633a-48fa-b360-d78a8d2063bf.jpg?v=1785917172","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-4012-4800-ss-pipe-nipple-3-4-in-sch-40-304","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
