Questions about this item
How do I install this 1 1/4" NPT steel nipple without damaging the Schedule 40 threads?
Wrap PTFE tape or apply pipe dope on the male NPT threads, then hand-tighten into the mating fitting before final tightening with a pipe wrench on the hex flats; the step often missed is using a second wrench to hold the adjoining fitting so the joint does not over-rotate and crack the electric-resistance-weld seam.
What maintenance or replacement will this black-coated steel nipple need over time?
Inspect the black finish annually for rust or scale; if corrosion appears on the 1 21/32 in outside diameter or at the welded seam, replace the nipple — no internal serviceable parts exist.
At what pressure limit does this 2-inch nipple reach its maximum rating during sustained use?
The maximum operating pressure is 300 psi at 150 °F for air, gases, non-potable water or oils; for steam service the limit drops to 150 psi at 350 °F.
