Constructed from 304 stainless steel with a Schedule 40 wall rating, it delivers corrosion resistance and pressure integrity in both wet and dry service environments. The nipple measures 4.5 inches in length and 1.5 inches in diameter, with 1-1\/2-11-1\/2 male pipe thread (MPT) on both ends conforming to ANSI B1.20.1 thread standards. Rated to 150 psi, this fitting suits a wide range of fluid and gas transfer applications where durability and thread quality are critical. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is used in residential and commercial piping installations where stainless steel is specified for corrosion resistance or sanitary requirements. Common applications include water supply lines, process piping, boiler connections, and HVAC hydronic systems. The 304 stainless construction makes it suitable for mildly corrosive media and environments where standard black iron or galvanized fittings would degrade prematurely. Its SCH 40 rating places it in standard-duty service across a broad range of system pressures up to 150 psi.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e304 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and mildly corrosive service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall rating supports up to 150 psi working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-1\/2-11-1\/2 NPT threads on both ends conform to ANSI B1.20.1 dimensional standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelded construction for consistent wall thickness and thread engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4.5-inch length suits standard nipple close-coupling and offset applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard SCH 40 threaded pipe nipple for use with 1-1\/2 in NPT fittings, valves, and piping components in residential and commercial systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and local code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly; do not overtighten, as stainless threads can gall if driven without lubrication. Verify system pressure rating compatibility before returning the line to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: MPT x MPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 in x 1-1\/2 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2-11-1\/2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: SCH 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI B1.20.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.86 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MIDLAND INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 48146\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67950405255474,"sku":"48146","price":47.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4f61eb1bbb504e5a0a9b64fb2e0ff554.jpg?v=1791716369","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-48146-pipe-nipple-1-1-2-in-ss-sch-40","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
