Built to Schedule 80 wall thickness, this nipple handles higher-pressure applications than standard Schedule 40 fittings. The Grade 316\/316L dual-certified stainless steel provides enhanced resistance to chlorides and acidic media, making it a reliable choice in chemical, marine, and process piping environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this fitting wherever a robust threaded connection is required. The 1\/2-inch pipe size suits a wide range of industrial and commercial piping runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic piping, industrial process lines, and corrosive-fluid applications where carbon steel or standard 304 stainless fittings are insufficient. The seamless construction eliminates weld seams that can be weak points in high-pressure or high-cycle service. Typical installations include chemical feed lines, coastal or marine mechanical rooms, food-service piping, and anywhere chloride exposure is a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeamless construction for uniform wall thickness and no weld-seam vulnerability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 316\/316L dual certification for compatibility with both standard and low-carbon stainless specifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 wall thickness rated for higher working pressures than Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch pipe size with matching 1\/2-inch thread size for direct inline installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel material resists corrosion from chlorides, mild acids, and moisture\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\/2-inch NPT threaded piping systems requiring Schedule 80, Grade 316 or 316L seamless stainless steel pipe 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 codes such as the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or applicable ASME B31 piping standards. Shut off and depressurize the piping system fully before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Use an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for stainless steel and the intended service fluid. Avoid over-torquing threaded connections, which can gall stainless steel threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316 \/ 316L\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\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches\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: 0.86 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: 6508-1200\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539540738354,"sku":"6508-1200","price":144.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d0bdd88c092a1a4f074ed0b56a459339_18fd7c3e-0206-4991-9821-6bb44189501e.jpg?v=1785842643","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-6508-1200-ss-pipe-nipple-1-2-in-sch-80-316-316l","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
