At 4 inches in overall length with a 2-7\/8 inch thread length, it provides a compact, rigid extension or transition point in piping runs. This nipple is suited for plumbing, compressed air, and light industrial fluid systems where aluminum construction is preferred for corrosion resistance and reduced weight. Installation is handled by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or qualified trades familiar with threaded pipe assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple fits into piping systems requiring a short close or shoulder nipple-style connector. The 6061 alloy construction makes it appropriate for applications where steel corrosion is a concern, including marine-adjacent environments, chemical exposure, and outdoor installations. It is rated to Schedule 40 wall thickness and meets OSHA standards, making it a code-appropriate choice for industrial and commercial work sites. The threaded-both-ends configuration allows fast make-up with standard NPT fittings and valves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6061 aluminum alloy construction for corrosion resistance and light weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded on both ends for straightforward connection to NPT fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for reliable pressure-rated performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 4-inch overall length suits tight piping spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets OSHA standards for industrial and commercial installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit component for Schedule 40 threaded aluminum piping systems using NPT connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShut off and depressurize the piping system fully before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply a compatible thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for use with aluminum fittings. Hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench to achieve a leak-free connection without overtightening, which can crack aluminum threads. Follow applicable IPC or OSHA guidelines for the installation environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-7\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6061 Aluminum\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.73 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: OSHA\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: 8064-001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542548480306,"sku":"8064-001","price":204.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a85bc426db5a712a1f6e23b8c149f4ea_b0ea51b2-29da-47f5-ad86-2d0fda4d5aa4.jpg?v=1785903418","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-8064-001-aluminum-pipe-nipple-sch-40","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
