Value Collection 4BN1X10 Pipe Nipple Schedule 40 Npt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4BN1X10 is a stainless steel pipe nipple manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness with NPT threading. Pipe nipples are short-length threaded pipe sections used to connect two female-threaded fittings, valves, or equipment ports. This nipple is suited for plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems where corrosion resistance is required. The stainless steel construction resists rust and handles a wide range of fluid and gas media. Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard pressure ratings for most commercial and residential piping applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install nipples of this type in both new construction and retrofit work.

This pipe nipple is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial plumbing systems, hydronic heating lines, steam distribution, and industrial process piping where NPT-threaded connections are required. Its stainless steel material makes it a common choice in corrosive environments, wet locations, and food-service or chemical-adjacent installations. It threads directly into NPT-compatible valves, couplings, tees, elbows, and other pipe fittings.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and chemically active environments
• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-service pressure ratings
• NPT threading for compatibility with standard American pipe fittings and valves
• Short nipple form factor for close-quarter connections between fittings or equipment ports
• Single-piece unit sold individually for precise quantity ordering

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-service nipple for use with any NPT-threaded Schedule 40 pipe fittings, valves, or equipment ports in residential or commercial piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC and local plumbing codes. Shut off the water supply or depressurize the gas or fluid line fully before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before makeup to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
