  • Threaded both ends for secure leak-free connections
  • Schedule 40 wall rated to 300 psi at 150°F

Pipe Nipple for Threaded Connections

This 1/2 inch MNPT galvanized steel pipe nipple measures six inches overall and is threaded on both ends. It is manufactured to Schedule 40 specifications using electric resistance welded construction. The fitting suits plumbing installations that require a short, rigid connector between female-threaded components.

Pressure and Temperature Limits

The nipple carries a maximum pressure rating of 300 psi at 150 degrees Fahrenheit. Wall thickness measures 0.109 inches, conforming to the Schedule 40 standard for this nominal size. Systems operating above these pressure or temperature thresholds must use a different fitting.

Compliance Determines Suitability

The product meets ASTM A-53 Type E, ASTM A-733 Grade B and WWN 351 standards, and is metal detectable. California Proposition 65 warnings apply for cancer and reproductive harm. Buyers needing a fitting without these chemical warnings or certifications for other regulatory regimes should select an alternative part.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 1/2" nominal size or a different diameter for my plumbing job?

Choose the 1/2" nominal size when your system uses 1/2" pipe; the 0.109 in wall thickness matches Schedule 40 for that diameter.

What does the 300 psi @ 150 Degrees F rating mean when the nipple is installed?

The joint can safely handle up to 300 psi water pressure at temperatures up to 150 Degrees F in normal service.

Are the MNPT threads on both ends compatible with standard NPT fittings?

Yes, the MNPT x MNPT threads follow the WWN 351 standard and mate with any matching NPT female fitting.
