Product Details
The Merit chrome plated brass schedule 40 nipple features dimensions of 1/8 x 4-1/2 inches with NPT male threading. This nipple is produced from seamless red brass pipe, alloy 230, which offers superior machinability and reduced brittleness compared to yellow brass, along with enhanced corrosion resistance that prevents dezincification. Brass is known for its durability against water, heat, salt water, acids, minerals, and peaty soils, making it ideal for various applications including commercial plumbing, OEM, oil, gas, and steam systems. The chrome plating not only provides an aesthetically pleasing shiny finish but also facilitates easy cleaning and prevents the attraction of dirt and bacteria.
