Manufactured from Grade 316\/316L stainless steel and built to Schedule 80 wall thickness, this nipple delivers greater wall strength than Schedule 40 equivalents, making it suitable for demanding fluid and gas transfer applications. The 1\/8 inch pipe size fits compact piping runs where space is limited. Plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians install this type of fitting as part of threaded piping assemblies in process, mechanical, and utility systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is well suited for residential and commercial plumbing, industrial process piping, chemical handling lines, and marine or coastal installations where chloride corrosion resistance is a priority. Grade 316\/316L stainless steel provides superior resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion compared to Grade 304, making it a preferred choice in environments exposed to salts, acids, or moisture. The Schedule 80 wall thickness supports higher operating pressures than standard Schedule 40 fittings at the same nominal pipe size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrade 316\/316L stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in aggressive environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure ratings versus Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeamless construction eliminates weld seams, reducing potential leak points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/8 inch nominal pipe size for compact threaded piping assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreaded ends compatible with standard NPT pipe fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1\/8 inch Schedule 80 threaded stainless steel piping systems.

Shut off and depressurize the piping system fully before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service fluid and pressure before making up threaded connections. Do not over-torque threaded stainless steel fittings, as galling can permanently damage the threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\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: Seamless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.018 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40173300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 6502-001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538393825586,"sku":"6502-001","price":16.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f6b777fef22dfd33f27e542882f35924.jpg?v=1785824330","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-6502-001-ss-pipe-nipple-1-8-in-sch-80-316-316l","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
