Industrial Pipe Nipple for Pressurised Systems

This Zoro Select steel pipe nipple connects threaded components in air, gas, oil and non-potable water lines. The Schedule 80 seamless construction handles up to 2,000 psi at 150 degrees F and 300 psi steam at 550 degrees F. It suits installers who need a reliable male-to-male NPT link in a 2 inch nominal bore.

Black-Coated Steel with NPT Threads

The black finish protects the steel during storage and handling. Both ends carry male NPT threads, so the nipple screws directly into female fittings without adapters. The 2 1/2 inch overall length and 2 3/8 inch outside diameter fit standard Schedule 80 assemblies, while the seamless wall removes a potential leak path.

Ready-to-Install Fitting

No gaskets, sealant or tools are included in the box. The threaded ends arrive clean and ready for thread tape or pipe dope applied by the fitter. The transparent colour noted in the data refers to the packaging, not the nipple itself. Buyers needing a longer spacer or a female-threaded end must source a different fitting.

Questions about this item

What does the NPT threading on this 2 in pipe nipple cap in practice?

The NPT threads seal tapered pipe connections for air, gases, non-potable water and oils up to 2,000 psi at 150 Degrees F or 300 psi steam at 550 Degrees F.

What clearance and fitting schedule does this nipple require to mount?

It fits Schedule 80 fittings with a 2 3/8 in outside diameter and needs 2 1/2 in overall length for thread engagement.

How is this steel nipple installed and what step is often missed?

Apply thread sealant to the male NPT threads, tighten to the fitting, and pressure-test; skipping the sealant causes leaks.
