Manufactured from red brass with a chrome finish, this nipple measures 8 inches in overall length and carries a 1\/4 inch NPT thread on each end. Its full-length threading allows for versatile installation depths and close-to-close fittings. Plumbers and pipefitters use this type of nipple when connecting valves, fittings, or fixtures in water supply, gas, or general-purpose plumbing lines where a polished chrome appearance is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications including water supply risers, angle stop extensions, fixture supply connections, and exposed piping runs where chrome finish is required. It is commonly installed in tight spaces where a short, fully threaded connection between two female-threaded fittings is needed. The 1\/4 inch NPT size is frequently used in low-flow water lines, air lines, and instrument connections. Licensed plumbers typically specify this part in both new construction and retrofit projects requiring a finished appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded on both ends for direct connection between two female-threaded fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRed brass construction offers excellent corrosion resistance in water and steam service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrome plating provides a clean, finished appearance for exposed installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 inch overall length suits a range of extension and offset applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch NPT thread conforms to standard tapered pipe thread specifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component compatible with standard 1\/4 inch NPT female-threaded fittings, valves, and fixtures used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT threads before assembly.
