Value Collection MSCNG03015 Pipe Nipple 3/8 in Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSCNG03015 is a galvanized Schedule 40 steel pipe nipple designed for use in threaded pipe assemblies across plumbing, HVAC, and general industrial piping systems. Measuring 3/8 inch in pipe size and 1-1/2 inches in length, this close nipple features male NPT threads on both ends for straightforward inline connections. Welded steel construction with a galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance in wet or exposed environments. This type of fitting is a standard component installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters during new construction, repairs, or system modifications.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a short threaded section is needed to join two female-threaded fittings, valves, or equipment ports. The 3/8-inch pipe size fits standard branch lines and low-flow supply runs common in domestic water, gas distribution, and hydronic systems. Its Schedule 40 wall thickness meets typical pressure requirements for these service types.

Key Features

• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet or exposed installations
• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure service
• MNPT X MNPT connection on both ends for direct inline assembly
• Welded steel construction for consistent thread integrity
• Compact 1-1/2 inch length suits tight or close-coupled fitting layouts

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock fitting compatible with 3/8-inch female NPT threaded fittings, valves, and equipment ports in Schedule 40 threaded pipe systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements for the service type. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing threaded fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
