Merit Brass 6132-250 316 Ss Welded Nipple 2 X 2.5 in

Product Description

The MERIT BRASS 6132-250 is a 316 stainless steel welded pipe nipple sized at 2 inches by 2.5 inches. Welded nipples are short threaded pipe extensions used to connect two female-threaded fittings or to extend a pipe run. The 316 stainless steel construction provides strong resistance to corrosion, including chloride environments, making this nipple well suited to demanding fluid and gas piping systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in both new construction and retrofit applications where standard-weight pipe connections are required.

This welded nipple is used in residential and commercial plumbing, industrial process piping, and mechanical systems where 316 stainless steel is specified for corrosion resistance or material compatibility. The 2-inch by 2.5-inch dimension fits standard pipe runs requiring a short close-coupled connection between threaded components. Domestic origin is confirmed per manufacturer specification.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter using appropriate pipe wrenches and thread sealant rated for the intended service. Shut off and isolate the pipe system and relieve any pressure before removing or installing threaded fittings. Follow applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC for thread engagement and joint integrity requirements. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can damage the fitting threads.
