Measuring 3\/4 inch in diameter and 4 inches in length, this nipple features NPT threads on both ends for secure, leak-resistant connections. The black finish coating provides corrosion resistance suitable for gas, steam, and water service applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in commercial and industrial environments where standard Schedule 40 or 80 wall thickness is insufficient for the system's pressure demands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is well-suited for residential and commercial gas distribution lines, steam systems, and high-pressure water supply applications. The heavy Schedule 160 wall construction makes it appropriate for systems operating at elevated pressures where thinner-wall fittings would not meet code or engineering requirements. It threads directly into Schedule 160 pipe, fittings, valves, and other NPT-threaded components of the same nominal pipe size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 160 wall thickness for high-pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/4 inch nominal pipe size with standard NPT threading on both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 inch overall length for short-run connections and offsets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack finish coating suitable for gas, steam, and water applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreaded ends allow tool-based installation without welding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install fitting for 3\/4 inch Schedule 160 threaded piping systems using standard NPT connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation of threaded pipe nipples should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or tape to NPT threads before assembly, and use a pipe wrench to achieve a proper mechanical connection. Do not overtighten, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 160\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.65 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 584-040S160BC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51697408147762,"sku":"584-040S160BC","price":42.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e24328fc4a8e04093620519fadd6ee4d.jpg?v=1788351377","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-584-040s160bc-black-pipe-nipple-sch-160","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
