got a 1 inch npt setup already, is this nipple the right thread and length for tying two female ends together?

It’s a 3.00 inch long steel pipe nipple with male NPT threads, and the thread callout is 1-11-1/2. It’s meant to join two female threaded connections in a steel pipe system where you need that 1 inch NPT size.

thread size on this one is 1-11-1/2 NPT, right? just want to make sure before I order a handful of em

Correct, it's a 1-11-1/2 male NPT thread. That's the standard taper thread configuration for 1-inch pipe, so it'll mate up with any female NPT fitting of the same size without issue. The taper does the sealing work as you tighten it down, which is why the product is noted as not requiring additional thread sealant under normal installation.
