Measuring 1\/4 inch in diameter by 2 inches in length, this close-pattern nipple provides a reliable, leak-resistant connection between threaded fittings, valves, and supply lines. Machined from solid brass, it delivers the corrosion resistance and mechanical strength required in both potable water and non-potable fluid applications. Its lead-free construction meets modern plumbing code requirements for drinking water systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations where a short threaded extension or coupling connection is needed. Common applications include connecting shutoff valves, supply stubs, pressure gauges, and branch fittings in water distribution lines. The 1\/4-inch thread size makes it a frequent choice for low-flow service lines, air lines, and instrument connections. Its compact 2-inch length fits tight-clearance installations where a standard pipe run is not practical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets potable water safety requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch threaded diameter by 2-inch body length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCorrosion-resistant brass material suitable for water and air service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRed finish for quick visual identification in the field\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.07 pounds for easy handling and inventory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard installation fitting compatible with 1\/4-inch NPT threaded valves, couplings, and fittings in residential and commercial plumbing systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before threading this nipple into place. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to the male threads before installation to ensure a leak-free joint.
