Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 736113-0224 is a yellow brass pipe nipple designed for use in plumbing and piping systems where a short, threaded connector is needed between fittings or valves. Measuring 1/8 inch in diameter by 1-1/2 inches in length, this nipple is manufactured as a lead free compliant product meeting the requirements of Public Law 111-380. Yellow brass offers good corrosion resistance and machinability, making it a reliable choice for water service, gas distribution, and mechanical piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this type of fitting.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations where small-diameter threaded connections are required. Common applications include fixture supply lines, valve connections, and manifold assemblies. The 1/8 inch thread size is frequently found in low-flow or instrumentation-side piping, gauge ports, and pilot supply lines. This fitting is sold in bulk packaging with a package quantity of 10 units, making it practical for service technicians who need multiples on hand for routine work.

Installation Notes

Installation of brass pipe nipples is typically performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off the water or gas supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly, and tighten to hand-snug plus the number of turns appropriate for the pipe size per code guidance. Do not over-torque brass fittings, as the material can crack under excessive force.
