Brass Hex Reducing Nipple – Male-to- Female Adapter – High Pressure

SKU: NHP523

$3.70

This brass hex reducing nipple is a male-to-female adapter designed to connect pipes, hoses, or fittings of different thread sizes. Machined from solid brass, it offers corrosion resistance, durability, and reliable sealing in high-pressure and high-temperature environments.

The hexagonal adapter/reducer is widely used in automotive, plumbing, gas, and industrial applications. Its hexagonal center section allows easy tightening or loosening with a wrench, while the male-to-female thread configuration enables versatile adaptation between mismatched components.

In automotive and hydraulic systems, it is commonly used for connecting fuel lines, air compressor tools, or hydraulic hoses. In plumbing and gas setups, it adapts propane bottles, water mains, or heating systems. In industrial automation, it is used for installing gauges, sensors, or connecting metallic and nylon tubing.

Rated for -0.9 to 15 bar (-13 to 218 PSI) and an operating temperature range of -40°C to 200°C (-40°F to 392°F), this fitting ensures leak-free tube sealing and rugged performance under demanding conditions.
