With male NPT (MNPT) ends on both sides and a pressure rating of 7,200 psi, this nipple handles demanding process, industrial, and mechanical piping applications. The hex body allows a wrench to seat firmly during installation or removal. At 1.65 inches in length and weighing 0.25 pounds, it is a compact, heavy-duty transition fitting that reduces from a 1\/2-inch to a 3\/8-inch line. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting in steam, water, oil, and gas distribution piping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hex nipple is suited for use in residential and commercial mechanical systems, process piping, and refinery or industrial applications where corrosion resistance is critical. The 316 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for installations exposed to moisture, chemicals, or salt environments. It meets ANSI B 31.1 Power Piping, Refiner Piping Code ASME\/ANSI, and ASME\/ANSI B1.20.1 (1983) thread standards, making it compliant with code-governed piping assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in wet and chemical environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7,200 psi pressure rating suitable for high-pressure piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMNPT ends on both sides for direct connection into female-threaded fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex body profile allows standard wrench engagement for controlled make-up torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReducing configuration transitions a 1\/2-inch line down to 3\/8-inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI B 31.1 and ASME\/ANSI B1.20.1 (1983) standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded fitting replacement for 1\/2-inch by 3\/8-inch MNPT reducing hex nipple applications in code-compliant pressure piping assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable mechanical codes such as ANSI B 31.1 and the IPC. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing any existing fitting. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service fluid and pressure before threading the nipple into the female fittings. Do not overtighten; use the hex body with a properly sized wrench to achieve a controlled, leak-free make-up without stressing the fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Nipple\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 x 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: MNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7,200 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.65 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI B 31.1, Refiner Piping Code ASME\/ANSI, ASME\/ANSI B1.20.1 (1983)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40175300\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: SS-THN-MN8-MN6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694317797682,"sku":"SS-THN-MN8-MN6","price":15.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/85c5ea5ad05eef64e58f0d40d1447504.jpg?v=1788323042","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-ss-thn-mn8-mn6-316-ss-hex-nipple-1-2x3-8-mnpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
