It measures 1 inch in nominal pipe size with a 1.5-inch overall length and is threaded on both ends for standard NPT connections. Built to Schedule 40 wall thickness, this nipple provides the structural integrity needed for low- to medium-pressure service in industrial and mechanical piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install this type of fitting as part of a larger threaded assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple suits residential and light commercial plumbing, compressed air, and fluid transfer systems where aluminum construction is preferred over steel or brass to reduce weight and resist corrosion. Its Schedule 40 rating makes it a practical choice for general-service lines. The short 1.5-inch body fits close-coupled connections where space between components is limited. OSHA compliance is indicated for applicable applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6061 aluminum construction offers corrosion resistance and reduced weight compared to steel fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for general-service pressure ratings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded on both ends for standard NPT assembly without welding or soldering\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 inch nominal pipe size x 1.5 inch length for close-coupled installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets OSHA standards for applicable piping applications\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 compatible with 1-inch NPT threaded pipe and fittings in Schedule 40 aluminum piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters. Depressurize and isolate the line before beginning any threaded connection work. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before assembly and tighten to hand-snug plus wrench-tight per standard practice. Do not overtighten aluminum fittings, as the material is more susceptible to thread damage than steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6061 Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreading\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded on Both Ends (NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: OSHA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 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: 8016-001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538722160946,"sku":"8016-001","price":31.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a4fd8bdc1e528c73a31f6e4ecf97ebf2.jpg?v=1785825794","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-8016-001-aluminum-pipe-nipple-sch-40","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
