Sized at 3\/8 inches in diameter and 2 inches in length, this nipple features male NPT threads on both ends for standard threaded fitting engagement. The Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure capacity and mechanical strength compared to Schedule 40, making it suitable for higher-demand service conditions. At 0.12 pounds, it is a compact fitting installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians as part of a larger threaded assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis pipe nipple is used in residential and light commercial applications where a short threaded connection is needed between fittings, valves, or equipment ports. Common install scenarios include gas line stub-outs, boiler trim piping, compressed air distribution, and hydronic heating manifold connections. The seamless construction is preferred in applications where weld seams could introduce a weak point under cyclic pressure or thermal stress. Both ends accept standard NPT fittings without adapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure and mechanical strength versus Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeamless construction eliminates weld seam vulnerabilities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMNPT x MNPT threading on both ends for direct connection to standard NPT fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch pipe size fits common valve bodies, tees, and elbows in that size range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 inch length provides a short close nipple extension between fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack pipe material suited for gas, air, and non-potable fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for threaded pipe systems using 3\/8 inch NPT connections in Schedule 80 configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable codes including the International Fuel Gas Code or International Plumbing Code as required by the service type. Shut off and depressurize the line before threading or removing any fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten, as this can crack fittings downstream or damage thread engagement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Seamless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: MNPT x MNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.12 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: MSCXNB03020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51715157918002,"sku":"MSCXNB03020","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7346508ec6cf1e1520133f018f3f3605.jpg?v=1788509892","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-mscxnb03020-black-pipe-nipple-sch-80","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
