Questions about this item

How can I confirm the 3 in NPT pipe nipple is working correctly after threading it into my air or oil line?

Pressurise the system up to 150 psi and check every joint for leaks; the welded steel nipple rated for 150 psi at 360 °F should hold without weeping.

What comes with the Zoro Select 0830046009 nipple and what must I supply myself?

The box contains only the 41/2 in black anodised steel nipple; you must provide thread sealant or tape and any mating fittings.

Which version of this 3 in steel nipple should I choose for a 150 psi steam line?

The single listed model 0830046009 is rated for 150 psi steam at 360 °F, so it covers that requirement.
