Dixon Valve Coupling 13711 Npt Combination Nipple 5 Pack

Product Description

The DIXON VALVE COUPLING 13711 is a threaded combination nipple designed for hose coupling applications in industrial and trade plumbing systems. This NPT-threaded fitting connects hose assemblies to threaded pipe or equipment ports, providing a secure mechanical connection in fluid transfer lines. Sold in a pack of five, the 13711 is suited for plumbers, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians who need reliable hose-end fittings for water, air, or compatible fluid service. The National Pipe Taper thread standard ensures compatibility with standard NPT-threaded ports and reduces the risk of leaks when properly installed.

Combination nipples of this type are commonly installed in light industrial, commercial, and contractor settings where flexible hose lines must terminate at a threaded connection point. Typical applications include compressed air lines, water supply hose drops, and general fluid transfer systems. The 13711 is packaged in quantities of five, making it practical for service vehicles and shop inventory where multiple installations are expected in a single job or work order.

Key Features

• NPT thread standard for compatibility with standard tapered pipe thread connections
• Threaded nipple design provides a secure hose-to-pipe transition
• Sold in a pack of 5 units for efficient restocking and multi-point installations
• Compact form factor suited for tight hose-end applications

Compatibility

Designed as an NPT-threaded hose combination nipple for use with standard National Pipe Taper threaded hose fittings and ports in industrial and plumbing fluid transfer systems.

Installation Notes

Installation of threaded hose nipples is typically performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters. Shut off and depressurize the fluid system completely before removing or installing any fitting. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads as required by job specifications and applicable codes. Do not overtighten fittings, as NPT taper threads are self-sealing and excessive torque can crack fittings or distort sealing surfaces.
