At 12 inches in length with a 1\/2-inch diameter, this nipple serves as a reliable connector between threaded fittings, valves, and pipe runs. The red finish identifies the part at a glance during installation. Weighing 0.77 pounds, it is sized for easy one-hand handling in tight spaces. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters rely on lead-free brass fittings like this one to meet current potable water standards and code requirements in supply line assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for use in water supply, irrigation, and general plumbing systems where a 1\/2-inch NPT threaded connection is required.
