Constructed using a seamless process to Schedule 80 wall thickness, this nipple meets the requirements of high-pressure and corrosive-environment applications. At 3\/8 inch pipe size, it fits standard threaded piping systems and is sized for use in tight spaces and branch connections. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians working on steam, chemical, or corrosive-fluid systems will find this nipple appropriate for both new installations and service repairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, process piping, HVAC hydronic systems, and industrial fluid handling where standard carbon steel or brass fittings are not appropriate due to chemical exposure or sanitary requirements. The Schedule 80 wall thickness provides added strength over Schedule 40, making it a common choice in higher-pressure service lines. The 3\/8 inch pipe size is frequently used in branch lines, instrumentation connections, and close-quarters piping runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in chloride and chemical environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeamless construction eliminates weld seams, supporting consistent wall thickness and pressure integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure ratings compared to standard Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch pipe size fits standard NPT threaded fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for steam, water, chemical, and hydronic piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard component for 3\/8 inch NPT threaded piping systems requiring Schedule 80 stainless steel nipples.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or ASME B31 piping codes. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Use an appropriate thread sealant rated for stainless steel and the specific service fluid. Avoid over-tightening, which can crack or gall stainless steel threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 316 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: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\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: 6506-2400\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542161752370,"sku":"6506-2400","price":369.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/919a8c936871f3129ecd5bde8559d5b2_186a140c-50d5-43e0-bac0-40c2ae84bd2e.jpg?v=1785894104","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-6506-2400-ss-pipe-nipple-3-8-in-grade-316-sch-80","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
