At 3 inches in length and 3 inches in diameter, this nipple is used to join or extend threaded pipe runs in a wide range of fluid and low-pressure plumbing applications. Aluminum construction keeps weight low at 0.59 pounds while offering corrosion resistance suitable for many common service environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this fitting where a short, rigid threaded connection is required between two female-threaded ports or fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation, and fluid distribution systems where aluminum is an acceptable pipe material. The 3-inch MPT on both ends mates with standard ANSI\/ASME B1.20.1 NPT female threads. It is a direct threaded installation requiring no special tooling beyond a pipe wrench and appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape. Typical applications include pump connections, manifold assemblies, and short offset runs in above-ground piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-inch MPT on both ends for straightforward connection to female-threaded fittings or ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum construction provides corrosion resistance and reduced weight compared to steel or iron alternatives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-inch nominal diameter accommodates high-flow plumbing and mechanical piping configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.59 pounds, reducing load on hanging or bracketed pipe assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClose-pattern 3-inch length suits tight-clearance installations and manifold connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard threaded replacement nipple for use with 3-inch female NPT (FNPT) fittings and ports in aluminum-compatible piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC and local plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply PTFE tape or an approved pipe thread sealant to the male threads before assembly, and tighten with a pipe wrench to achieve a leak-free joint. Do not overtighten aluminum fittings, as the material is more susceptible to thread damage than steel or iron.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: MPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: MPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.59 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: 76201\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67952841851186,"sku":"76201","price":46.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bcecb0f399196a877fe200284169da36.jpg?v=1791752724","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-76201-aluminum-pipe-nipple-3in-mpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
