The hex nipple is machined from 316 stainless steel (ASTM A351 CF8M), providing superior corrosion resistance and durability in harsh environments. It features two NPT male threads, ensuring secure installation and leak-resistant performance.
The reducing hex nipple variant allows connection between female-threaded pipes of different diameters, extending pipelines or adapting fittings. Commonly used in plumbing, hydraulic systems, pneumatic networks, and industrial liquid/gas transfer, it is also essential for high-pressure applications such as gauges, cylinders, and chemical processing lines.
Rated for Class 6000 service (up to 6,000 PSI), this fitting is suitable for extreme pressure conditions. Its stainless steel construction resists rust and chemical attack, making it ideal for demanding industrial and mechanical systems.
