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

SKU: NHP525

$4.20

This brass hex reducing bushing adapter is designed to adapt a larger male NPT threaded connection down to a smaller female NPT thread. Precision-machined from solid brass, it provides a strong, leak-resistant connection and is compatible with brass, copper, bronze, steel, aluminum, and iron pipes.

The hexagonal body allows easy tightening or loosening with a standard wrench, ensuring secure installation. Solid brass construction offers improved thread accuracy, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability compared to cast fittings.

This fitting is widely used in automotive, plumbing, HVAC, and industrial applications. Common uses include installing oil pressure or temperature sensors into engine blocks, connecting fuel, brake, or clutch lines, and adapting gas, oil, or air lines in plumbing systems.

Rated for up to 218 PSI and operating temperatures from -65°F to 250°F (-53°C to 121°C), it is suitable for demanding environments requiring rugged, leak-free performance.
