Larsen Supply 2677838 Dual Thread Snap Nipple with Aerator

Product Description

The LARSEN SUPPLY CO., INC. 2677838 is a chrome-plated dual thread snap nipple with an integrated aerator, designed for faucet spout connections in residential plumbing applications. It features a 15/16-27 male thread on one end and a 55/64-27 female thread on the other, allowing it to bridge the two most common faucet aerator thread sizes in a single fitting. The chrome plating provides corrosion resistance and a finished appearance suited for exposed installations. The built-in aerator delivers a flow rate of 1.8 gallons per minute, meeting California flow rate compliance standards. This fitting is lead free compliant and is sized to fit small diameter snap couplers.

This snap nipple is used in residential faucet aerator installations where the spout thread and aerator thread sizes differ. It is a common service part for kitchen and bathroom faucet repair, used when replacing or upgrading aerator assemblies. Plumbers and plumbing technicians install this fitting during routine faucet maintenance or when converting between thread standards. It ships in carded packaging with a package quantity of six units per pack, making it practical for service vans and supply counters stocking common repair hardware.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by licensed plumbers or qualified plumbing technicians during faucet aerator service. Shut off the water supply to the faucet before removing the existing aerator or spout fitting. Hand-tighten the snap nipple first, then use a strap wrench or aerator key as needed to seat the fitting without overtightening the chrome-plated threads. Follow all applicable local plumbing codes, including IPC requirements for lead-free fittings in potable water systems.
