Value Collection 38567 Ss Pipe Nipple 1-1/4 in Grade 304 Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 38567 is a seamless stainless steel pipe nipple sized for 1-1/4 inch pipe, manufactured to Grade 304 stainless steel and Schedule 40 wall thickness. This fitting is used to connect or extend threaded pipe runs in plumbing, industrial, and mechanical systems where corrosion resistance and structural integrity are required. The seamless construction eliminates weld seams, reducing potential failure points under pressure or cyclic loading. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple in a wide range of ferrous and stainless threaded systems. At approximately 2.3 pounds, it is a solid, full-weight fitting suited for demanding service environments.

This pipe nipple is appropriate for residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, chemical distribution lines, food-service piping, and industrial process lines where Grade 304 stainless steel is specified. The 1-1/4 inch pipe size fits standard Schedule 40 threaded fittings, valves, and couplings. Its corrosion resistance makes it a practical choice for wet, humid, or mildly corrosive environments where carbon steel fittings would be unsuitable.

Key Features

• Grade 304 stainless steel construction for reliable corrosion resistance in wet and mildly corrosive environments
• Seamless manufacturing eliminates weld seams, improving pressure integrity and reducing leak points
• Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard pressure ratings for 1-1/4 inch pipe systems
• Threaded ends compatible with standard NPT fittings, valves, and couplings
• Suitable for plumbing, hydronic, food-service, and light industrial process piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard 1-1/4 inch Schedule 40 threaded stainless steel pipe systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter using standard NPT threading tools and pipe wrenches. Shut off system pressure and drain the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for stainless steel and the intended service fluid. Do not overtighten threaded connections on stainless steel fittings, as galling of the threads can occur; use controlled hand-plus-wrench torque and inspect threads before assembly.
