Manufactured from Grade 304\/304L stainless steel, this nipple delivers strong corrosion resistance in water, steam, and mild chemical service lines. The seamless construction eliminates weld-zone vulnerabilities, making it a reliable choice for higher-pressure and higher-temperature applications. At 0.05 pounds, it is a compact fitting suited for tight plumbing assemblies. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians routinely use Schedule 80 nipples like this one where standard Schedule 40 wall thickness is insufficient for the service conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC condensate and refrigerant line assemblies, instrumentation connections, and industrial process piping wherever 1\/8 inch threaded connections are required. The 304\/304L dual-grade designation makes it compatible with both standard and low-carbon welded system requirements. It is well suited for installations involving water, air, steam, and non-aggressive chemical media where stainless steel is the specified material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 304\/304L stainless steel construction for broad corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeamless construction eliminates weld seams for consistent wall strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 wall thickness rated for higher-pressure service than Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/8 inch pipe size with matching NPT thread size for standard fitting compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.05 pounds, suitable for compact or restricted-space installations\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 1\/8 inch NPT threaded pipe systems requiring Schedule 80 stainless steel nipples.\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 or IFGC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium. Do not overtighten; use a calibrated pipe wrench and follow standard torque guidance for the pipe size and material rather than applying excessive force that can stress the fitting threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\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: Seamless\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 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: 4502-200\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542196420914,"sku":"4502-200","price":21.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/75ff8de962035801a0bc7377fea0f34e.jpg?v=1785894840","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-4502-200-ss-pipe-nipple-1-8-in-sch-80-304-304l","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
