Value Collection 4BN1/8*31/2 Pipe Nipple 1/8 in Sch 40 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4BN1/8*31/2 is a seamless stainless steel pipe nipple designed for threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. Constructed from Grade 304 and 304L stainless steel, this nipple delivers solid corrosion resistance in both wet and moderately corrosive environments. It is manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness for 1/8 inch pipe size, making it suitable for low-volume fluid and gas transfer lines where a reliable, compact threaded connection is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting in commercial and residential applications.

This pipe nipple is used in tight-space piping runs where a short threaded connection is needed between two female-threaded fittings or valves. Its 1/8 inch pipe size suits instrument lines, small-diameter gas pilots, chemical feed lines, and similar low-flow service points. The seamless construction eliminates weld seams, reducing potential leak paths in pressure-bearing assemblies.

Key Features

• Grade 304 and 304L stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and mildly corrosive service
• Seamless manufacturing eliminates weld seams for improved pressure integrity
• Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard dimensional requirements for 1/8 inch pipe
• Threaded ends allow direct installation into standard NPT female fittings and valves
• Compact size suits instrument lines, pilot assemblies, and small-diameter branch connections

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded pipe nipple for use with 1/8 inch NPT fittings, valves, and threaded pipe connections in Schedule 40 piping assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements for the service type. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench to bring the connection to proper engagement without over-threading. Always depressurize and isolate the line before removing or replacing any threaded nipple in an active system.
