Product Description:
Precisely connect and extend piping runs with our reliable 1/2×5 Inch Carbon Steel Pipe Nipple. Engineered for demanding applications, this essential threaded fitting provides a robust, leakresistant seal in industrial, commercial, and construction settings.
Key Features & Benefits:
- IndustrialGrade Carbon Steel: Constructed from highstrength carbon steel, this nipple offers superior durability, pressure resistance, and longterm reliability, outperforming standard fittings in harsh environments.
- Standard NPT Threading: Features precisioncut Male National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads on both ends (1/2″ NPT), ensuring a secure, pressuretight seal when connected to compatible female NPT fittings, valves, or equipment.
- Optimal 5Inch Length: The 5inch (nominal) length provides the perfect solution for bridging gaps, creating extensions, or making secure connections within confined spaces in piping systems.
- High Pressure & Temperature Rating: Suitable for use with steam, water, oil, gas, air, and other industrial fluids operating at elevated pressures and temperatures.
- CorrosionResistant Options: Typically supplied with a durable black finish (mill scale or black oxide) for basic protection. Galvanized (zinccoated) versions are available for significantly enhanced corrosion resistance in outdoor or corrosive environments.
- Schedule 40/80 Compatible: Designed to seamlessly connect with standard Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 carbon steel pipes and fittings, ensuring compatibility with common industrial piping systems.
- Versatile Applications: Ideal for a wide range of uses, including:
Process Piping (Chemical, Petrochemical, Oil & Gas)
Plumbing Systems (Industrial/Commercial)
Steam Lines
Hydraulic Systems
Compressed Air Lines
Fire Sprinkler Systems
Machinery and Equipment Connections
