Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 1/8" NPT threaded pipe nipple delivers critical engineering value in industrial piping systems where corrosion resistance and pressure integrity are paramount. The seamless 316/316L stainless steel construction eliminates weld weaknesses, preventing failure in steam, oil, and natural gas applications that experience thermal cycling and chemical exposure. Its NPT thread design ensures tight, reliable connections in Class 150 environments, reducing installation time and leakage risks. Engineers specify this Schedule 40 pipe nipple for its ability to maintain performance in aggressive media—from saline water to acidic condensates—while complying with ASTM A733 and ASME B1.20.1 standards for dimensional accuracy and thread consistency.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This 6" male threaded pipe nipple features precision NPT threads on both ends per ASME B1.20.1 with standard Class 2A tolerances. Manufactured from seamless 316/316L stainless steel with 0.068" wall thickness (Schedule 40), it meets ASTM A733 specifications for welded and seamless carbon and alloy steel pipe nipples. The product is fully RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) compliant and designed for compatibility with 316 stainless steel fittings and flanges in pressure-rated systems.
