Measuring 3\/8 inch in diameter and 18 inches in length, this nipple is welded construction with a black finish coating. Its heavier Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure capacity compared to Schedule 40, making it a common choice where mechanical strength or higher operating pressures are required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install these as close or extension nipples in threaded piping assemblies across a range of commercial and residential systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pipe nipple is suited for use in water supply, steam, gas distribution, and industrial process piping where threaded black iron components are specified. The 18-inch length makes it appropriate for spanning moderate distances between fittings without requiring a full pipe section. It is commonly used in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, gas train assemblies, and hydronic heating systems where Schedule 80 wall thickness is called out by design or code. Installation requires standard pipe wrenches and compatible NPT threaded fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure and mechanical strength versus Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWelded construction for consistent dimensional integrity along the full 18-inch length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish coating standard for non-galvanized gas and steam piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch nominal pipe size with NPT-compatible threading on both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 1.08 pounds, practical for overhead or tight-space installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard component for threaded black iron piping systems using 3\/8 inch NPT fittings, valves, and couplings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the International Plumbing Code or International Fuel Gas Code. Shut off and depressurize the affected piping system before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten, as excessive torque can crack fittings or distort threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Welded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.08 pounds\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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 03R0301800RTTM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51695207842098,"sku":"03R0301800RTTM","price":51.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9b26135bf3c3dad266f8aab53d80a53f.jpg?v=1788332559","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-03r0301800rttm-black-pipe-nipple-sch-80","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
