Product Details
The Merit chrome plated brass schedule 40 nipple 3/8 x 6 NPT male is constructed from seamless red brass pipe, alloy 230, which ensures durability and strength. These chrome plated red brass nipples are preferable due to their ease of machining, resistance to brittleness, and superior corrosion resistance compared to yellow brass, as they will not dezincify. Brass provides reliable corrosion resistance against water, heat, salt water, acids, and the minerals and peaty soils found in water. This product is primarily designed for water applications in commercial plumbing and OEM contexts, but it is also suitable for oil, gas, and steam applications. The chrome plated finish allows for easy cleaning, minimizes the attraction of dirt and bacteria, and preserves a shiny appearance. The product dimensions are 3/8 inches in diameter and 6 inches in length.
