Measuring 3\/8 inch in diameter and 5 inches in length, it features male NPT threads on both ends for straightforward inline connections. Welded steel construction gives it the wall thickness and structural integrity required for general-purpose plumbing and gas distribution applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install these nipples when extending or joining threaded pipe runs in commercial and residential systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple fits standard 3\/8-inch threaded pipe applications across residential plumbing, light commercial piping, and mechanical systems. It is suited for use in gas supply lines, water distribution, compressed air, and similar fluid-handling configurations where Schedule 40 wall thickness is specified. The black finish distinguishes it from galvanized fittings and is commonly required in natural gas and propane distribution systems per local codes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for standard-duty piping applications\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 inline use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish suitable for gas distribution and non-potable systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch diameter by 5 inch length for precise close-nipple spacing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard component for 3\/8-inch Schedule 40 threaded steel pipe systems using NPT connections.\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 codes, including the International Plumbing Code or International Fuel Gas Code where relevant. Shut off the gas or water supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as this can damage threads or crack fittings.\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 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\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 inches\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: 1.3 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: MSCNB03050\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694522925362,"sku":"MSCNB03050","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f40d3f85818456c8ab49792dad80b2f3.jpg?v=1788325016","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-mscnb03050-black-pipe-nipple-3-8x5-sch-40","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
