Manufactured from Grade 316 and 316L stainless steel, this nipple offers strong resistance to corrosion, including chloride environments and chemical exposure. It is built to Schedule 80 wall thickness, providing extra strength for higher-pressure systems. At 1-1\/4 inch pipe size with matching 1-1\/4 inch thread, it fits standard NPT pipe systems. The seamless construction eliminates weld seams, reducing potential failure points in critical installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this component.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pipe nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC piping systems, industrial process lines, and chemical handling systems where stainless steel is specified. Its Grade 316 and 316L dual certification makes it appropriate for marine environments, food processing facilities, and corrosive-fluid service where carbon steel or lower-grade stainless would be inadequate. Schedule 80 wall thickness makes it a common choice when piping must meet pressure ratings above standard Schedule 40 requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 316 and 316L stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeamless manufacturing eliminates weld seams for improved pressure integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 wall thickness for higher-pressure service compared to Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/4 inch NPT thread size for compatibility with standard threaded pipe fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDual-grade 316 and 316L certification supports a broad range of code and specification requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for 1-1\/4 inch NPT threaded pipe systems requiring Schedule 80 stainless steel pipe nipples.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Use a thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for stainless steel and compatible with the service fluid. Avoid over-tightening, which can crack or gall stainless steel threads; use a pipe wrench with a backup wrench on adjacent fittings to prevent stress on the connected piping.\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 and 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: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches NPT\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: 0.55 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: 6520-250\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542830645554,"sku":"6520-250","price":74.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d0bdd88c092a1a4f074ed0b56a459339_ba95a832-8e64-40c5-bdfc-2cca6e88ce08.jpg?v=1785908697","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-6520-250-ss-pipe-nipple-1-1-4-in-grade-316-sch-80","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
