Sized at 2 inches by 6 inches, this close-coupled fitting connects threaded pipe sections and serves as a reliable extension between fittings, valves, and other threaded components. The brass construction provides strong corrosion resistance, making it well suited for water supply lines and related plumbing assemblies. The lead-free designation meets regulatory requirements for use in systems carrying drinking water. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a 2-inch threaded connection is required. Typical uses include water distribution lines, boiler piping, and fixture connections where a short, rigid extension between two threaded ports is needed. The 6-inch body length provides enough reach for standard offset installations and tight-clearance situations in mechanical rooms or utility spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets potable water compliance requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-inch diameter with 6-inch body length for standard offset plumbing connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMale NPT threads on both ends for straightforward installation into threaded fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrosion-resistant brass alloy suited for water supply and plumbing service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact rigid body minimizes potential leak points compared to flexible alternatives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 2-inch NPT threaded plumbing systems in residential and commercial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC).
