Carbon Steel Nipple Sch40/80/160 - Custom Fabrication

The carbon steel nipple sch40/80/160 - custom fabrication is a straight threaded or prepared piece according to requirement, used to join fittings, valves or equipment when a standard commercial length does not solve the assembly. At TECTUL it is custom fabricated in carbon steel, by unit, according to the schedule or standard requested by the project. It differs from a union because it does not include a disassembly seat: its function is to extend, separate or adapt connections while maintaining line continuity. Compared with an imported commercial nipple, fabrication allows length, thread and end preparation to be adjusted for maintenance, replacement or special assemblies. To quote correctly, indicate diameter, length, thread type, schedule, finish and service fluid.

Selection guide

• Define nominal diameter and required length before requesting fabrication.
• Indicate schedule or wall thickness compatible with the installed pipe.
• Confirm material, thread type or end preparation and surface finish.
• Send drawing, sample or photo if the replacement must fit existing equipment.

Installation recommendations

• Clean threads before assembly and remove burrs that could detach into the line.
• Use sealant compatible with the fluid and the fitting material.
• Tighten with the proper tool, holding the body so torsion is not transmitted to the installed pipe.
• Avoid combinations of metals or sealants that accelerate corrosion or process contamination.
