Pipe Nipple for Air, Gases, Oils
This BECK pipe nipple is made from seamless steel with a black anodised finish. It suits applications carrying air, gases, non-potable water and oils. The 1/2 inch nominal size and 6 inch overall length fit standard NPT threading requirements. Rated for 2,000 psi at 150 degrees F and 300 psi steam at 550 degrees F.
Simple NPT Threaded Installation
The nipple uses standard NPT threads on both ends for direct connection to compatible fittings. Apply suitable thread sealant or tape to prevent leaks on the tapered threads. Over-tightening can crack the fitting or strip the threads, so tighten to the correct torque. Ensure the black anodised coating remains intact to maintain corrosion resistance.
Check Pressure, Media and Thread Compatibility
Verify your system pressure stays below the 2,000 psi rating at operating temperature. Confirm the conveyed media is compatible with steel and the anodised finish. Ensure mating components use 1/2 inch NPT threads with matching taper. This item is restricted from sale in certain states, so check local regulations before ordering.

The package contains the 6 in steel nipple with 1/2 in NPT threads on both ends; you will need compatible NPT fittings, thread sealant or tape, and any mounting hardware for your air, gas, oil or non-potable water system.
Which length or size variant should I select for a 1/2 in nominal pipe system?
This model is the 6 in overall length version with 1/2 in nominal size, 53/64 in outside diameter and 2,000 psi pressure rating; choose it when those exact dimensions match your piping layout.
