Green Leaf M 1400 Nylon Hex Nipple 1/4 Inch Mipt X Mipt

Product Description

The GREEN LEAF M 1400 is a 1/4 inch nylon hex nipple with male iron pipe thread (MIPT) connections on both ends. Molded from white nylon, this fitting is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and rated for potable water applications under NSF61 and NSF372 certifications. The hex body allows for wrench engagement during installation, ensuring a secure, leak-free threaded connection. Plumbers and pipefitters use this nipple to extend or connect threaded pipe runs in low-pressure fluid systems where metal fittings are not required or preferred.

This hex nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications involving water distribution, irrigation, filtration systems, and chemical-handling lines where nylon construction is appropriate. Its MIPT x MIPT end connections are compatible with standard 1/4 inch female threaded fittings and port openings. The NSF61 certification makes it acceptable for use in potable water systems, and the NSF372 certification confirms compliance with lead-free standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before threading this nipple into any live line. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope rated for use with nylon fittings and potable water systems. Do not over-torque nylon fittings, as excessive force can crack the body or distort the threads.
