Value Collection 6BN3/4*31/2 Stainless Steel Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 6BN3/4*31/2 is a welded stainless steel pipe nipple sized for 3/4-inch pipe. Manufactured from Grade 316 and 316L stainless steel, this nipple offers strong corrosion resistance suitable for demanding fluid-handling applications. It is built to Schedule 40 wall thickness and carries a 3/4-inch thread size, making it a standard-fit component for threaded piping assemblies. Plumbers and pipefitters install these nipples to connect pipe runs, extend threaded ends, or transition between fittings in both above-ground and exposed installations where corrosion resistance is a priority.

This pipe nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, process piping, and mechanical systems where stainless steel is specified for corrosive environments, high-moisture exposure, or sanitary requirements. The 316 and 316L material grades provide added resistance to chlorides compared to 304-series stainless, making this nipple a practical choice in coastal, chemical-adjacent, or food-service adjacent installations where standard carbon steel or lower-grade stainless would be inadequate.

Key Features

• Grade 316 and 316L stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance
• Welded construction to Schedule 40 wall thickness
• 3/4-inch pipe size with 3/4-inch thread size for standard threaded assembly
• Suitable for corrosive, high-moisture, or sanitary piping environments
• Compact nipple form for close connections and tight-clearance installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for 3/4-inch Schedule 40 threaded stainless steel piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter working on threaded stainless steel piping systems. Shut off and depressurize the affected line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Use an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for stainless steel and the specific fluid service. Follow applicable codes including the International Plumbing Code or relevant local mechanical codes for pipe jointing and material requirements.
