It measures 3\/8 inch in diameter and 3-1\/2 inches in length, with male NPT threads on both ends. The welded steel construction delivers the wall thickness and pressure tolerance required for typical Schedule 40 service. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of nipple when making close-coupled connections between fittings, valves, and threaded pipe runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial applications including natural gas supply lines, steam and hydronic heating systems, compressed air distribution, and general water service where black iron pipe is specified. The MNPT x MNPT thread configuration makes it a direct fit into standard NPT female-threaded fittings, valves, and couplings without adapters. The black finish is standard for gas piping installations where galvanized fittings are not permitted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for standard-service pressure ratings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWelded steel construction for consistent dimensional integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMale NPT threads on both ends for direct threaded assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish appropriate for gas line and mechanical piping service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch pipe size x 3-1\/2 inch length for close-coupled runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 40 threaded pipe systems using 3\/8 inch NPT connections in plumbing, gas, and mechanical piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes. Shut off and depressurize the supply line fully before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, and tighten to a proper thread engagement using a pipe wrench — do not over-tighten, as this can crack fittings or damage threads. On gas systems, verify all connections with an approved leak-detection solution after pressurizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Welded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: MNPT x MNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1 pounds\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: MSCNB03035\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51717459149106,"sku":"MSCNB03035","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/373bb01f5affd59b9f46087389c9388b.jpg?v=1788540816","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-mscnb03035-black-pipe-nipple-3-8x3-5in-sch40","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
