Questions about this item
What does the 8-inch overall length mean when the nipple is threaded into fittings?
The 8-inch measurement is the total end-to-end length; the engaged thread length inside each fitting will reduce the exposed portion between connections.
How does the 1/2-inch MNPT thread and Class 150 rating limit the maximum operating pressure?
The 1/2-inch MNPT threads conform to Class 150 dimensions, and the nipple is rated for 267 psi at 450 °F for air, natural gas, oil, potable water and steam.
What clearance is needed for the 13/16-inch outside diameter when routing this nipple?
The outside diameter is 13/16 inch, so any hole, sleeve or bracket must accommodate at least that width for the seamless red brass body to pass through.
