2-inch Schedule 40 Steel Nipple
This 2-inch nominal pipe size nipple is manufactured from welded steel with a black finish and male NPT threads on both ends. It is rated for 300 psi at 150 degrees Fahrenheit and 150 psi steam pressure at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. The fitting suits air, gases, non-potable water and oil lines in industrial and commercial plumbing systems.
Prop 65 chemical notice
California Proposition 65 warnings indicate the product contains chemicals known to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. This disclosure affects handling, storage and installation practices for workers and end users. No bundled accessories or software accompany this bare fitting.
Welded steel construction
Electric resistance welded pipe with Schedule 40 wall thickness provides mechanical strength for threaded connections. The 3-inch overall length and 2 3/8-inch outside diameter determine spacing between joined components. Male NPT threads on both ends allow direct engagement with female-threaded valves, couplings or equipment ports.

Questions about this item
Will the threads on this Schedule 40 steel nipple need re-taping or replacement after repeated disassembly?
The male NPT threads are cut into the steel wall; re-apply PTFE tape or pipe dope each time you reassemble, but the nipple itself does not require scheduled replacement unless corrosion or thread damage appears.
What pressure limit will be reached first if this nipple runs continuously at 150 °F with air or oil?
The maximum operating pressure is 300 psi at 150 °F, so that rating governs sustained use with air, gases, non-potable water or oils.
How hot does the surface get when steam at the rated 150 psi flows through it all day?
At the maximum steam rating of 150 psi the saturated temperature is 350 °F, so the nipple surface will approach that temperature during continuous steam service.
