Parker 215PNL-6-30 Long Nipple 3/8 Mnptf 1000 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER 215PNL-6-30 is a long nipple pipe fitting with a 3/8-inch male MNPTF thread, designed for use in industrial fluid and pneumatic piping systems. It carries a maximum working pressure of 1000 psi and handles operating temperatures from -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F. The fitting measures 3 inches in overall length and weighs approximately 0.13 pounds. It meets SAE J530 and SAE J531 standards. Plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians install this type of fitting when extending a threaded pipe run or connecting two female-threaded ports with a longer reach than a standard close or short nipple allows.

This long nipple is suited for industrial plumbing, hydraulic, and pneumatic applications where a 3/8-inch MNPTF male-threaded extension is required. Its pressure and temperature ratings make it appropriate for a wide range of plant, commercial, and process piping environments. The MNPTF thread form provides a pressure-tight connection when used with compatible female NPT fittings and appropriate thread sealant. Sold individually, it is a direct-install component requiring no additional hardware beyond standard pipe thread preparation.

Key Features

• 1000 psi maximum working pressure rating
• Operating temperature range of -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F
• 3-inch overall length for extended reach between threaded connections
• Meets SAE J530 and SAE J531 standards
• Lightweight at 0.13 pounds for easy single-hand installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for industrial piping systems using 3/8-inch female NPT-threaded ports and fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified industrial pipefitters following applicable IPC and facility piping codes. De-pressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing any threaded pipe fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly; do not overtighten, as MNPTF threads are tapered and can crack fittings or damage ports if torqued beyond hand-tight plus the manufacturer-recommended turns. Inspect threads for damage before installation.
