Merit Brass NIPBR3-3 Brass Pipe Nipple 3 Inches X 3 Inches Mnpt Sch 40 Seamless Domestic

Product Description

The Merit Brass NIPBR3-3 is a 3-inch by 3-inch brass pipe nipple designed for use in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. This fitting connects two female-threaded components using male NPT threads on both ends. It measures 3 inches in nominal diameter and 3 inches in length, making it a close or short nipple suitable for tight-clearance installations where minimal spacing between fittings is required. The nipple is manufactured to Schedule 40 standard wall thickness, which is the most common specification used across residential, commercial, and light industrial piping applications. It is produced using a seamless construction method, meaning there is no welded seam along the body. This reduces the risk of weak points and helps the fitting handle pressure more reliably over time. The brass material provides excellent corrosion resistance, making it well-suited for water supply lines, compressed air systems, steam applications, and fuel gas lines. Brass fittings are a preferred choice among plumbers and pipefitters working with potable water because the material meets common lead-free and sanitary standards for drinking water contact. This nipple is domestically manufactured, which appeals to contractors and facilities that require American-made components for compliance or specification purposes. MNPT threading follows standard NPT taper thread dimensions, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of valves, couplings, and other fittings in the field. The red finish is typical of Merit Brass products and helps with quick visual identification on the job site. Whether used in new construction or retrofit piping work, this fitting provides a reliable, pressure-rated connection in a compact 3-inch length.
