A106 GR.B 1/8" - 6" Carbon Steel Seamless Pipe Nipple
What is a Pipe Nipple?
When it comes to plumbing and piping, a nipple is a fitting that is a short piece of pipe. A nipple is usually provided with a male pipe thread (MPT) connection at each end of the fitting, which are used to make a watertight seal when connecting piping to threaded fittings, valves or equipment. Pipe nipples are in lengths up to 12", lengths over 12" are referred to as ready cut pipe the thread specifications are identical however the tolerance on the length is less stringent on ready cut pipe.
Seamless Pipe Nipple
Seamless pipe nipples do not have a welded seam that runs up the length of the pipe nipples. Seamless pipe nipples are structurally stronger and are designed for high pressure applications.
The Differences Between Welded Nipples And Seamless Nipples
In appearance, the difference between seamless pipe nipple and welded pipe nipple is that there are welding ribs on the inner wall of the welded nipple, but the seamless nipple is not.
The seamless nipples have higher pressure resistance. The welded nipples are generally about 10 MPa. Now the welded nipples can be seamless treatment.
Seamless pipe nipples raw material seamless steel pipe is formed at one time during rolling. Welded pipe nipples raw material welded pipe needs to be welded after rolling, generally spiral welding and direct welding. The performance of seamless pipe nipples is better, of course, the price is higher.
Because the seamless pipe nipples and the welded pipe nipples have different pressure-bearing capabilities, the seamless nipples can be used for various liquid and gas pipelines, and the welded nipples are used for low-pressure fluid transmission pipes, such as water, gas, and heating pipes.
