The nipple measures 2.5 inches overall length and is threaded on both ends using NPT thread standards, allowing it to join two female-threaded fittings or connect to valves, unions, and similar components. Red brass construction provides good corrosion resistance in water and low-pressure steam service. This type of fitting is a standard consumable in plumbing rough-in work, hydronic heating systems, and commercial piping layouts installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial installations where a short-length threaded connector is needed between two fittings. The NPT thread pattern is the North American standard for tapered pipe threads, making this part compatible with the broad range of NPT-threaded valves, tees, elbows, and couplings found in plumbing and HVAC piping systems. It is commonly used in boiler piping, water distribution, and gas-rated brass fitting assemblies where the pipe material meets code requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRed brass construction for corrosion resistance in water and low-pressure steam service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPT threads on both ends for standard North American tapered pipe thread compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.5 inches overall length suitable for close-coupled connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a package quantity of 2 units per order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard NPT-threaded brass pipe nipple compatible with NPT female-threaded fittings, valves, and pipe connections in plumbing and HVAC piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters. Shut off water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing threaded fittings. Apply a listed thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before assembly and tighten to snug with pipe wrenches — do not overtighten red brass fittings as the material can crack. Verify that the fitting material and pressure rating are appropriate for the intended service per applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or local amendments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Red Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded on both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40173300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANDERSON METALS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: -11153-2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ANDERSON METALS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51690544922930,"sku":"-11153-2","price":24.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/66834f7021acf6605cf73b0a55d7761f.jpg?v=1788271396","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/anderson-metals-11153-2-brass-pipe-nipple-2-5in-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
