Merit Brass NIPBR2-512 Pipe Nipple 2 Inches X 5-1/2 Inches Brass Mnpt Sch 40 Std Seamless Domestic

Product Description

The Merit Brass NIPBR2-512 is a 2-inch nominal brass pipe nipple measuring 5-1/2 inches in length. It is built to Schedule 40 standard wall thickness and features male NPT (MNPT) threads on both ends. This nipple is seamless, meaning it has no weld seam running along its body. That construction method produces a more uniform wall and stronger overall structure compared to welded alternatives. Brass pipe nipples like this one are widely used in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems where corrosion resistance and reliable thread engagement matter most. Brass handles a broad range of temperatures and pressures, making it suitable for water lines, steam service, fuel gas, and compressed air applications. The MNPT threads conform to American National Standard Pipe Taper thread specifications, ensuring compatibility with standard fittings, valves, and couplings found on job sites every day. This nipple is domestically manufactured, which is an important compliance factor for government, commercial, and institutional projects that require Buy American or similar sourcing documentation. The red finish is a standard surface indicator for brass nipples in this product line and does not affect performance. At 2 inches nominal diameter, this nipple fits Class 150 and standard-duty brass or iron fittings commonly stocked by plumbing supply houses. Schedule 40 wall thickness provides adequate pressure ratings for most commercial and residential piping applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians rely on brass nipples as close connectors between valves, tees, unions, and other threaded components. Keeping properly sized brass nipples on hand reduces downtime during installations and service calls.
