1/4 x 2.5 SS Long Nipple

SKU 5771
Price

$5.20

1/4 x 2.5 SS Long Nipple. A nipple is a short length of pipe threaded on both ends, used to join two female fittings or extend a connection.

 

Stainless steel offers the best corrosion resistance available in a standard fitting, which matters on any system running chemicals, sodium hypochlorite, or salt exposure. It costs more up front and outlasts the alternatives by a wide margin in chemical service.

 

Close nipples have no unthreaded center section and give the shortest possible connection between two female fittings.

 

Grime Task Force stocks fittings across materials and sizes because a rig is only as reliable as its plumbing, and a single wrong or failing fitting can shut down a job. Keeping common sizes on the truck turns most plumbing failures into a short delay instead of a lost day.
