Value Collection 4BN11/2*6 Pipe Nipple 1-1/2 in Sch 40 304SS

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4BN11/2*6 is a 1-1/2 inch Schedule 40 stainless steel pipe nipple constructed from Grade 304/304L stainless steel using a welded process. Pipe nipples serve as short threaded connectors between fittings, valves, or equipment in piping assemblies. This nipple features NPT threads at 1-1/2 inch thread size, matching its nominal pipe size. The 304/304L dual-grade designation means the material meets both standard and low-carbon specifications, giving it solid corrosion resistance across a wide range of fluid and process applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors rely on Schedule 40 fittings like this for standard-pressure piping systems.

This pipe nipple is suited for use in residential and commercial plumbing, process piping, and mechanical systems where stainless steel is required for corrosion resistance or cleanliness. It is appropriate for water, steam, air, and compatible chemical service lines where 304 or 304L stainless steel meets the material specification. Welded construction makes it a reliable choice for systems that demand consistent wall integrity throughout the fitting.

Key Features

• Grade 304/304L dual-certified stainless steel for corrosion resistance and low-carbon compliance
• Welded construction for consistent wall thickness and structural integrity
• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure piping applications
• 1-1/2 inch NPT threaded ends match nominal pipe size for straightforward assembly
• Suitable for water, steam, air, and compatible process fluid service

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 40 stainless steel piping systems using 1-1/2 inch NPT threaded connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before assembly. Follow local plumbing codes and ASME B31 piping standards for thread engagement, support spacing, and pressure rating requirements.
