Measuring 1 inch in nominal pipe size and 2.5 inches in length, this nipple is threaded on both ends and manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness. It is used to make short, close extensions or connections between threaded fittings, valves, and pipe runs. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting in fluid, air, and gas distribution systems where aluminum is the specified material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, compressed air lines, irrigation systems, and industrial process piping where 6061 aluminum is called out. The Schedule 40 rating provides adequate wall thickness for standard-pressure service applications. Its threaded-on-both-ends design allows direct connection to female-threaded fittings, valves, or couplings without field modification. It meets OSHA standards as noted in the specification data.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6061 aluminum construction for corrosion resistance and reduced system weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded on both ends for direct connection to female-threaded fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 inch nominal pipe size x 2.5 inches overall length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets OSHA standards per specification data\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard component for 1 inch NPT threaded piping systems using Schedule 40 aluminum pipe and fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working with threaded aluminum piping systems. Apply a compatible thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for aluminum and the service fluid before assembly. Do not use pipe wrenches or over-torque threaded connections, as aluminum threads can gall or strip more easily than steel. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting.\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: 2.5 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\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: 0.104 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: 8016-250\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539504693554,"sku":"8016-250","price":40.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a85bc426db5a712a1f6e23b8c149f4ea_08b7a112-5083-4c5d-b7d2-8e55575ddcdd.jpg?v=1785842040","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-8016-250-aluminum-pipe-nipple-sch-40","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
