Manufactured from Grade 316 and 316L stainless steel, this nipple offers strong resistance to corrosion and pitting in demanding environments. The Schedule 40 wall thickness provides the pressure-bearing capacity required for standard plumbing and process piping applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting wherever a short threaded extension or close nipple connection is needed between pipe sections or into threaded fittings and valves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pipe nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, as well as industrial and process piping systems where corrosion resistance is a priority. Grade 316 316L stainless is commonly specified in applications involving salt water exposure, chemical environments, and food-service or sanitary piping. It is a direct-threaded component that connects into standard NPT female fittings and is installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and ASME B31 piping codes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 316 and 316L stainless steel construction for high corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWelded construction with Schedule 40 wall thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch pipe size for standard NPT threaded connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for chemical, marine, food-service, and general plumbing environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUNSPSC Code 40173300 for procurement and catalog classification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for Schedule 40 stainless steel piping systems using 3\/8 inch NPT threaded connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off and depressurize the system before removing or installing any threaded pipe fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for stainless steel and the intended service fluid. Do not overtighten threaded stainless steel fittings, as galling can occur; use a proper pipe wrench and follow applicable IPC or ASME piping code requirements for the installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316 316L 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: 3.17 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: 6006-7200\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540489732402,"sku":"6006-7200","price":338.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d0bdd88c092a1a4f074ed0b56a459339_9a3a031b-1fbe-4d73-bd0d-fa1a70060aef.jpg?v=1785856333","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-6006-7200-stainless-steel-pipe-nipple-3-8-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
