Value Collection 4BN11/2*41/2 Ss Pipe Nipple 1-1/2 in Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4BN11/2*41/2 is a welded stainless steel pipe nipple designed for threaded piping systems in plumbing, industrial, and mechanical applications. Manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness with a 1-1/2 inch pipe size and Grade 304/304L stainless steel construction, this nipple provides corrosion resistance suitable for a wide range of fluid transfer systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting when making threaded connections between valves, pumps, strainers, and other piped components. The dual-grade 304/304L designation supports both standard and low-carbon weld-zone requirements.

This nipple is suited for residential and commercial piping systems where stainless steel is specified for corrosion resistance or sanitary requirements. Common applications include potable water distribution, HVAC hydronic systems, chemical transfer lines, and food-service or industrial process piping. The 1-1/2 inch thread size fits standard NPT fittings and valves at that pipe diameter. Schedule 40 wall thickness meets typical pressure requirements for general-purpose piping in these environments.

Key Features

• Grade 304/304L stainless steel construction for broad corrosion resistance and low-carbon weld compatibility
• Welded construction manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness
• 1-1/2 inch NPT thread size for standard fitting and valve connections
• Dual material grade designation suitable for systems requiring low sensitization at weld zones
• UNSPSC Code 40173300 for procurement and classification systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock fitting for threaded 1-1/2 inch stainless steel piping systems using Schedule 40 pipe and NPT-threaded components.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and local mechanical code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the piping system fully before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Use an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service fluid and pressure before making up the connection. Do not overtighten threaded stainless steel fittings, as galling can occur between stainless mating surfaces.
