ASTM B687 Brass Pipe Nipple Standard

[Phil Fields]

Hello,
I am looking for information concerning brass pipe nipples, specifically their length. Does ASTM B687 or any standard specify a tolerance for a specified length?

We are having some fit up issues and would like to have a specification to inspect the part to.


Thank you,
Phil

Yes, ASTM B687 specify tolerance for nipple length, but it's very brief
It says, nipples with length up through 12 in, length tolerance = +/- 1/16in
Nipples over 12 in, length tolerance = +/- 1/8in
