It measures 2.5 inches in nominal pipe size and 8 inches in length, making it a close-coupled connector suited for moderate-length pipe runs. At 1.82 pounds, it carries the corrosion resistance expected from stainless steel construction. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting when joining sections of threaded pipe in fluid or gas distribution systems where stainless material is specified for longevity and sanitary compliance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, and industrial process piping where NPT-threaded Schedule 40 fittings are required. It connects directly to any standard NPT-threaded valve, coupling, tee, or fitting of matching nominal size. Its stainless steel construction makes it a practical choice for wet, humid, or chemically active environments where carbon steel would corrode prematurely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure threaded pipe applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPT thread standard ensures compatibility with the widest range of threaded fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and chemically active environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.5 inch nominal pipe size x 8 inch length provides a fixed close-to-medium extension between fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.82 pound weight consistent with full Schedule 40 wall stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard-duty replacement or new-install NPT-threaded pipe nipple for Schedule 40 stainless steel piping systems.

Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male NPT threads before makeup, and tighten to hand-tight plus the number of turns specified by the sealant manufacturer — do not overtighten stainless steel threads, as galling can occur. Inspect threads for damage before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.82 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40173300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 6BN21\/2X8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51721310765362,"sku":"6BN21\/2X8","price":71.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a0d74576fe77e6054c3ef12a15250c74.jpg?v=1788576219","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-6bn21-2x8-ss-pipe-nipple-sch-40-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
