Value Collection 4BN1*3 Ss Pipe Nipple 1 in Sch 40 Gr 304

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4BN1*3 is a welded stainless steel pipe nipple designed for use in fluid and gas piping systems where corrosion resistance and structural integrity are required. Manufactured from Grade 304/304L stainless steel, it meets Schedule 40 wall thickness standards, providing a reliable connection point in a wide range of plumbing, process, and industrial piping configurations. The 1-inch pipe size makes it a common fit for both commercial and light industrial installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple as a short threaded connector between fittings, valves, and other threaded pipe components.

This pipe nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing systems, as well as industrial process piping where stainless steel is specified for sanitary, chemical, or high-moisture environments. Schedule 40 construction supports standard working pressures found in water supply, steam, and general fluid service applications. The 304/304L dual-grade material designation makes it compatible with both standard and low-carbon welded stainless pipe specifications, broadening its usability across different project requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or local jurisdiction requirements. Shut off the water or fluid supply and relieve system pressure before threading or replacing any nipple. Use appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as this can damage the fitting or mating threads.
