  • Product colorTransparent
  • Handles air, gas, oil, steam and non-potable water
  • Black anodized finish resists corrosion in harsh environments
  • Continuous welded steel construction rated to 300 psi at 150 °F
  • Schedule 40 wall thickness with 39/64 in bore for strong flow
  • Made in USA from Grade A steel for reliable service

Application Range

This steel pipe nipple handles air, gas, non-potable water, oil and steam in Schedule 40 systems. The 1/2 inch NPT threads connect directly to compatible fittings without adapters. It is built for industrial and commercial piping where a 6 1/2 inch overall length fits the layout.

Construction Benefits

Continuous welded seam and Grade A steel provide structural integrity under pressure. Black anodized finish adds corrosion resistance for longer service life in harsh environments. The 300 psi rating at 150 degrees F and 150 psi steam rating at 360 degrees F give clear operating limits for safe system design.

Capacity Limits

Inside diameter of 39/64 inch and outside diameter of 53/64 inch define the flow capacity for this nominal size. The fixed 6 1/2 inch length offers no adjustment, so installers must plan around this dimension. Not suited for potable water lines or pressures above the rated maximums.

Questions about this item

Will the Schedule 40 steel nipple need replacement due to corrosion in steam service?

The black anodized coating on this Grade A steel nipple resists corrosion in steam up to 150 psi at 360 °F, extending service life before replacement is needed.

What pressure limit will be reached first when the nipple runs continuously at 150 °F?

The maximum operating pressure of 300 psi at 150 °F is the first limit reached under sustained use at that temperature.

Does the welded steel nipple generate noticeable heat or noise during all-day steam flow?

The continuous-weld Schedule 40 steel construction produces no mechanical noise, and heat transfer follows the 360 °F steam temperature without additional generation.
