Stainless Steel 316 Barrel Nipple – BSP Threaded

Genebre Art0150 Stainless Steel 316 BSPT Barrel Nipple

The Genebre Art0150 barrel nipple is manufactured from high quality AISI 316L stainless steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance and long-lasting performance in plumbing, industrial, and process pipework systems. Its robust design allows secure connections between two threaded pipe sections in confined spaces.

Featuring male BSPT taper threaded ends manufactured to ISO 7-1 (EN 10226-1) standards, this stainless steel barrel nipple provides reliable compatibility with standard BSP threaded systems. It’s suitable for water, steam, and various industrial fluid applications, with a maximum operating pressure of 20 bar (PN20) at up to 40°C.

Key Features:

• Manufactured from corrosion-resistant AISI 316L stainless steel

• Maximum operating pressure: 20 bar (PN20) at up to 40°C
• Operating temperature range: -20°C to 220°C
• Connects two threaded pipe sections in compact spaces
• Suitable for plumbing, industrial pipework, and process systems

Barrel vs Hex vs Weld Nipples:

Barrel nipples are short threaded pipe sections designed for direct pipe-to-pipe connections in tight spaces. Hex nipples feature a hexagonal body for tightening with a spanner, while weld nipples have one plain end for welding into a pipe system. All three types allow connection of threaded pipework but are used according to installation requirements.

Typical Applications:

• Threaded pipe connections in confined spaces
• Water and steam distribution systems
• Industrial and process pipe installations
• Chemical and fluid handling systems
