Bmi Usa 4674 Brass Ready Cut Pipe Nipple 16 Inches

Product Description

The BMI USA 4674 is a lead free brass ready cut pipe nipple measuring 16 inches in length. Threaded on both ends, this nipple connects sections of pipe in potable water, gas, and general plumbing systems where a fixed-length close nipple is required. The all-brass construction resists corrosion and meets lead free requirements for use in drinking water applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in residential and light commercial systems wherever a reliable, code-compliant threaded connection is needed.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations, including supply lines, distribution manifolds, and branch connections. The 16-inch length makes it a practical choice for spanning moderate distances between fittings or fixtures without field threading. It is appropriate for use in water supply and compatible threaded piping systems where brass fittings are specified.

Key Features

• Lead free brass construction compliant with potable water installation requirements
• 16-inch ready cut length eliminates field threading on the job
• Threaded on both ends for standard NPT connections
• Corrosion-resistant brass material suitable for water and general plumbing service
• Red finish for easy identification on the job site

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation threaded brass nipple for standard NPT threaded plumbing systems in residential and light commercial applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code and applicable local codes. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before removing any existing fitting or nipple. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the joint. Do not over-tighten threaded brass fittings, as excessive force can crack the fitting or distort the threads.
