Value Collection 6BN3/4X10 Ss Pipe Nipple Sch 40 Npt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 6BN3/4X10 is a Schedule 40 stainless steel pipe nipple with NPT (National Pipe Taper) threads on both ends. Pipe nipples are short sections of pipe used to connect two fittings, valves, or other threaded components in a piping system. This nipple measures 3/4 inch nominal pipe size and 10 inches in length, weighing approximately 0.44 pounds. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion, making it suitable for demanding fluid and gas handling applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers in both commercial and industrial environments.

This pipe nipple is appropriate for use in plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, steam lines, chemical distribution, and industrial process piping where corrosion resistance and pressure integrity are required. Schedule 40 wall thickness supports standard working pressures typical of commercial and light industrial service. The NPT thread standard ensures compatibility with the wide range of fittings, valves, and equipment that use tapered threaded connections throughout the trade.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard working pressure applications
• NPT tapered threads for a reliable, leak-resistant threaded connection
• Stainless steel construction provides corrosion and oxidation resistance
• 3/4 inch nominal pipe size fits common commercial and residential piping configurations
• 10 inch length suits close-coupled and offset connection scenarios

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for 3/4 inch NPT threaded piping systems using Schedule 40 fittings, valves, and equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as stainless steel threads can gall if excessive force is applied.
