Merit Brass NIPBR212-CLO Pipe Nipple 2.5 Inches X Close Length Mnpt Sch 40 Std Brass Domestic

Product Description

The Merit Brass NIPBR212-CLO is a 2.5 inches nominal close-length pipe nipple designed for professional plumbing and piping applications. Made from solid brass, this nipple features Male National Pipe Taper (MNPT) threads on both ends and meets Schedule 40 and Standard (STD) wall thickness requirements. A close nipple is the shortest type of pipe nipple available. The threads on both ends run together with little to no unthreaded body between them. This makes it the right choice when you need to connect two fittings as tightly as possible with minimal spacing. At 2.5 inches nominal pipe size, the NIPBR212-CLO handles a wide range of flow demands in both residential and commercial settings. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors rely on close nipples like this one to complete tight assemblies in water supply lines, gas distribution systems, heating systems, and industrial process piping. Brass is a preferred material in many piping systems because it resists corrosion, handles moderate to high pressure, and forms reliable threaded connections. Brass also performs well in both hot and cold water applications and is compatible with a broad range of pipe fittings, valves, and couplings. The seamless construction of this nipple means there are no seams or welds that could become weak points under pressure or temperature cycling. Merit Brass manufactures this nipple domestically, which supports consistent quality standards and material traceability. The red color coding helps with quick identification during installation and inventory management on the job site. This nipple conforms to standard trade dimensions, making it a straightforward drop-in component for any system requiring a 2.5 inches MNPT close nipple connection. It is well-suited for water, steam, gas, and other compatible fluid services within rated pressure and temperature limits.
