Value Collection 6BN3/4*4 3/4 in Ss Pipe Nipple 316 Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 6BN3/4*4 is a welded stainless steel pipe nipple sized for 3/4-inch pipe, manufactured from Grade 316 and 316L stainless steel with a Schedule 40 wall thickness. This nipple provides a threaded pipe extension or connection point in plumbing, HVAC, and process piping systems where corrosion resistance is a priority. The 316 and 316L material grades offer superior resistance to chlorides and aggressive media compared to standard 304 stainless, making this nipple well-suited for marine, chemical, and high-moisture environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting as a standard component in threaded pipe assemblies.

This pipe nipple is used in residential and commercial plumbing systems, industrial process lines, and HVAC hydronic piping where stainless steel construction is specified. The 3/4-inch pipe size fits common supply and return line configurations. Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard pressure requirements for most threaded piping applications. The welded construction and 316 316L grade are commonly called out in corrosive-service specifications and coastal or chemical plant installations.

Key Features

• Grade 316 and 316L stainless steel for strong corrosion resistance in chloride-rich and chemical environments
• Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard pressure ratings for threaded pipe systems
• Welded construction provides consistent wall integrity along the nipple body
• 3/4-inch pipe size fits widely used supply, return, and branch line configurations
• UNSPSC Code 40173300 for procurement and catalog system compatibility

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard component for threaded 3/4-inch Schedule 40 stainless steel piping systems where Grade 316 or 316L material is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC guidelines for threaded pipe connections. Shut off and depressurize the affected piping system before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Use appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for stainless steel and the service fluid. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as stainless steel threads are susceptible to galling.
