It is threaded on both ends with NPT threads conforming to ASME B1.20.1, providing a secure, leak-resistant connection in pipe assemblies. This nipple is dimensioned to ASTM A733 specifications under Figure No. 339. It is a standard fitting used in gas, water, steam, and mechanical piping systems by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians working on both residential and light commercial installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis black steel nipple is suited for use in a wide range of piping applications including natural gas distribution lines, steam systems, and general fluid conveyance. The 3\/8 inch diameter and 4-1\/2 inch length make it appropriate for close-quarter connections and offset runs in tight mechanical spaces. The black finish is the standard choice for gas piping applications where galvanized coatings are not permitted by local code. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as a standard threaded connector between valves, fittings, and equipment in commercial and residential systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eASTM A53 welded steel pipe construction for reliable pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPT threads per ASME B1.20.1 for consistent, leak-resistant makeup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDimensioned to ASTM A733, Figure No. 339\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish suitable for natural gas and general mechanical piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch diameter by 4-1\/2 inch length for standard close-nipple and offset applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard threaded pipe nipple for use with NPT-threaded fittings, valves, and couplings in residential and commercial piping systems.

Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service fluid before making up the connection. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A53 Welded Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT per ASME B1.20.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensional Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A733, Figure No. 339\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NIPPLES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 330011206\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NIPPLES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51149680378162,"sku":"0330011206","price":15.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/305986478.jpg?v=1778599657","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nipples-330011206-black-steel-pipe-nipple-3-8-x-4-5-in-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
