Product Details
The Merit chrome plated brass Schedule 40 nipple measures 3/4 inch by 2 inches with NPT male threads. It is made from seamless red brass pipe, specifically alloy 230, which provides enhanced machinability, reduced brittleness, and superior corrosion resistance compared to yellow brass, notably preventing dezincification. Brass offers excellent resistance to water and heat corrosion as well as resistance to salt water, acids, minerals, and peaty soils present in water. This chrome plated brass nipple is primarily used in commercial plumbing and OEM water applications but is also suitable for oil, gas, and steam systems. The chrome plating enhances cleanliness by resisting dirt and bacteria accumulation while maintaining a shiny finish. The product complies with Schedule 40 specifications and features NPT male threading for secure pipe connections. It comes with a standard manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship for the specified period.
