Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This black-coated steel threaded pipe nipple delivers critical performance in industrial fluid transfer systems where corrosion resistance and pressure integrity are paramount. The welded construction combined with NPT threading on both ends creates a robust, leak-resistant junction point that withstands thermal cycling and mechanical stress in air, gas, oil, steam, and water applications. Engineered to Schedule 40 specifications with standardized 3/8" pipe size, this component ensures dimensional consistency across iron and steel flanges while the protective coating prevents degradation in humid or chemically aggressive environments, significantly reducing maintenance frequency and system downtime.

Specification Summary & Compliance

Manufactured to ASME B1.20.1 thread standards with material compliance to ASTM A53 and ASTM A733 specifications. Features precise NPT threading with standard industrial tolerances, 0.091" wall thickness meeting Schedule 40 requirements, and full compliance with REACH (EC 1907/2006) and RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) environmental regulations for safe industrial use.
