Value Collection MSCNG05055 Pipe Nipple 3/4 in Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSCNG05055 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple designed for threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. Manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness, this nipple measures 3/4 inch in pipe size and 5.5 inches in length. Both ends are machined with Male National Pipe Taper (MNPT) threads for direct connection to female-threaded fittings, valves, or pipe couplings. The welded steel construction with galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suited for water supply, gas distribution, and mechanical piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this component.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping systems where 3/4 inch Schedule 40 threaded connections are required. Common applications include water supply lines, natural gas distribution piping, steam systems, and general mechanical piping where a short close-to-standard extension between two female-threaded components is needed. The 5.5 inch length provides enough extension for installations where a close nipple or standard hex nipple would be too short to allow wrench clearance.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard pressure ratings for 3/4 inch steel pipe
• Welded steel construction with galvanized finish for corrosion resistance
• MNPT x MNPT threading on both ends for compatibility with standard female-threaded fittings
• 5.5 inch length provides wrench clearance during installation and disassembly
• 3/4 inch pipe size is one of the most common sizes in residential and commercial piping systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard component for 3/4 inch Schedule 40 threaded steel pipe systems using MNPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or local jurisdiction requirements. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack female fittings or distort threads.
