It measures 0.25 inches in nominal diameter and 12 inches in length, making it a standard-length fitting for connecting threaded pipe runs or transitioning between components. Weighing 0.2 pounds, it is suited for use in plumbing, HVAC piping, and light industrial systems where corrosion resistance and dimensional accuracy are required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers. The stainless steel construction provides durability in wet, corrosive, or high-humidity environments where carbon steel fittings would be unsuitable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is used in residential and commercial piping systems where threaded connections are specified. Typical applications include water supply lines, steam service piping, compressed air systems, and chemical distribution lines where NPT-threaded fittings are standard. The Schedule 40 wall thickness meets common pressure and flow requirements for these service types. It installs between two female-threaded fittings, valves, or equipment ports and is compatible with standard NPT pipe components of the same nominal size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for standard-duty pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNPT threads on both ends for leak-resistant tapered thread engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and chemically aggressive environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12-inch length suits longer extension runs without additional couplings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.25-inch nominal diameter fits standard quarter-inch NPT fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for systems using 1\/4-inch NPT threaded pipe connections in Schedule 40 piping configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the system before threading or removing any fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male NPT threads before assembly to ensure a pressure-tight seal. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter (approx.)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.55 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 4BN1\/4X12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51700486832434,"sku":"4BN1\/4X12","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3272ce38d3524cb5d2891e01658c4355.jpg?v=1788390970","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-4bn1-4x12-ss-pipe-nipple-sch-40-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
