Measuring 3\/8 inch in diameter and 1-1\/2 inches in length, this nipple is constructed from seamless steel with a black finish coating. Schedule 80 wall thickness provides increased pressure capacity compared to Schedule 40, making it suitable for higher-demand applications. The 3\/8 inch NPT threads conform to ANSI B1.20.1 and ASME B1.20.1 standards. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pipe nipple is used in residential and light commercial piping installations where short, close-coupled connections are required between fittings, valves, or equipment. Common applications include gas line branch connections, water supply piping, steam systems, and general-purpose black iron piping assemblies. The 1-1\/2 inch length makes it appropriate for close nipple configurations in tight spaces. Its lead-free construction meets requirements for potable water and other regulated service environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure ratings versus Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeamless steel construction for uniform strength throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish coating standard for black iron pipe systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free material suitable for potable water applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded to ANSI B1.20.1 and ASME B1.20.1 NPT standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASTM A106 and ASTM A53 material standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting compatible with 3\/8 inch NPT threaded black iron pipe systems meeting ANSI B1.20.1, ASME B1.20.1, ASTM A106, and ASTM A53 specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC or IFGC codes depending on service type. Isolate and depressurize the piping system fully before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before assembly.
