Built to Schedule 80 wall thickness and manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel, this nipple delivers superior resistance to chlorides, acids, and elevated temperatures compared to standard 304 alloys. The heavier Schedule 80 wall provides additional pressure rating and mechanical strength over standard Schedule 40 fittings. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in industrial, commercial, and marine piping systems where material integrity under demanding conditions is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis pipe nipple is suited for use in residential and commercial plumbing, process piping, and HVAC hydronic systems where corrosion resistance is a priority. The 1\/2 inch pipe size and NPT-style threaded ends allow straightforward integration into existing ferrous or stainless threaded piping assemblies. Its seamless construction eliminates weld seams, reducing potential failure points in high-cycle or high-pressure service environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrade 316 stainless steel construction for enhanced chloride and acid resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeamless manufacturing eliminates weld seams and associated weak points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 wall thickness provides higher pressure ratings than Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch pipe size fits standard NPT threaded piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for corrosive, high-temperature, and marine-grade applications\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\/2 inch NPT threaded stainless steel piping systems requiring Grade 316 material and Schedule 80 wall thickness.\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 and local mechanical codes. Shut off and depressurize the affected piping section before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for stainless steel and the intended service fluid. Avoid over-tightening, which can cause galling on 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: 1\/2 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: 6508-4800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541357822258,"sku":"6508-4800","price":315.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/919a8c936871f3129ecd5bde8559d5b2_4977b8da-0a2c-4f91-8b17-b82d0d4f9706.jpg?v=1785873430","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-6508-4800-ss-pipe-nipple-1-2-in-grade-316-sch-80","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
