Value Collection 4BN11/2X10 Ss Pipe Nipple Sch 40 Npt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4BN11/2X10 is a Schedule 40 stainless steel pipe nipple threaded to NPT standards. Pipe nipples are short sections of pipe with male threads on both ends, used to connect two female-threaded fittings, valves, or equipment ports. This nipple is constructed from stainless steel, offering corrosion resistance in demanding fluid and gas piping applications. At 10 inches in length and approximately 1.9 inches in outer diameter, it is suited for medium-diameter piping runs. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install these as part of assembled piping systems in both commercial and industrial settings.

This nipple is appropriate for use in water supply, steam, compressed air, and compatible fluid transfer systems where Schedule 40 wall thickness and NPT threading are specified. The stainless steel construction makes it a practical choice in corrosive environments, high-humidity mechanical rooms, chemical exposure areas, or wherever carbon steel fittings are unsuitable. It is sold individually and fits standard NPT female-threaded connections of the matching nominal pipe size.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-duty pressure piping applications
• NPT threads on both ends for compatibility with standard female-threaded fittings and valves
• Stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and chemically active environments
• 10-inch length suits close-nipple to extension piping configurations
• Sold as a single unit with no minimum bundle requirement

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Schedule 40 NPT stainless steel pipe nipple for use with any compatible female NPT-threaded fittings, valves, couplings, or equipment ports of the matching nominal pipe size.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local mechanical and plumbing codes, including IPC and IFGC where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before making or breaking any threaded connections. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, and hand-tighten before using a pipe wrench to achieve a proper seal without over-torquing the fitting. Inspect threads for damage before installation.
