Merit Brass NIPBR34-CLO Pipe Nipple 3/4 Inch Close Length Brass Mnpt Sch 40 Std Seamless Domestic

Product Description

The Merit Brass NIPBR34-CLO is a 3/4 inch close-length pipe nipple made from solid brass for reliable performance in plumbing and piping systems. A pipe nipple is a short length of pipe used to connect two fittings, valves, or other threaded components in a piping assembly. The close-length design means the nipple is threaded its entire usable length, allowing two fittings to be joined with minimal space between them. This makes it ideal for tight installations where a standard or long nipple would not fit. The NIPBR34-CLO features male national pipe taper threads on both ends, commonly referred to as MNPT. These tapered threads form a pressure-tight seal when paired with female NPT fittings and thread sealant or PTFE tape. The nipple meets Schedule 40 and Standard wall thickness requirements, giving it the strength to handle typical working pressures found in residential and commercial plumbing systems. It is constructed from seamless brass, which eliminates the weld seam found in welded pipe products. Seamless construction results in a more uniform wall thickness and better resistance to pressure and corrosion. Brass is widely used in plumbing applications because it resists corrosion from water, resists dezincification in many environments, and works well with both hot and cold water systems. This nipple is domestically manufactured, meeting quality standards that many contractors, municipalities, and commercial projects require. Plumbers, pipefitters, and maintenance professionals use close nipples like this one when connecting valves, unions, couplings, and other threaded fittings in water supply, hydronic heating, compressed air, and gas distribution systems. The 3/4 inch nominal size is one of the most common pipe sizes in residential and light commercial plumbing, making this nipple a standard stock item for plumbing contractors and supply houses.
