Questions about this item

What thread size must the mating fitting have to connect to the 1-1/4" MNPT end of this nipple?

The nipple has a 1-1/4 inch male NPT thread, so the mating fitting needs a matching 1-1/4 inch female NPT thread.

Will this Schedule 80 red brass nipple handle the pressure if I keep my existing Class 300 fittings in the same line?

Yes, the nipple is rated for Class 300 fitting compatibility and a maximum operating pressure of 201 psi at 450 °F, which aligns with Class 300 service limits.

After installation, how can I verify the nipple is holding pressure up to its 201 psi rating at 450 °F?

Pressurise the system gradually to the design pressure while checking all joints for leaks; a successful hold at the rated pressure confirms the nipple is performing as specified.
