Midland Industries 41101LF Pipe Nipple 1 in Mpt 2 in Brass

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 41101LF is a chrome-plated, lead-free brass pipe nipple sized at 1 inch diameter and 2 inches in length. It features male pipe thread (MPT) connections on both ends with a 1-11-1/2 thread specification. This fitting is used to join or extend threaded pipe runs and is well suited for plumbing, water supply, and fluid distribution systems where lead-free construction is required by code. Its chrome-plated finish provides a clean appearance and added corrosion resistance. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This nipple is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a short close-nipple extension is needed between threaded components. It is commonly installed in water supply lines, fixture connections, and distribution manifolds. The lead-free brass construction meets compliance requirements for potable water systems under applicable plumbing codes. Its compact 2-inch body fits tight spaces where a longer nipple would not clear adjacent components.

Key Features

• Lead-free brass construction meets potable water compliance requirements
• Chrome-plated finish for corrosion resistance and clean visual appearance
• Male pipe thread (MPT) on both ends for standard threaded connections
• 1-11-1/2 thread form for compatibility with standard NPT fittings
• Compact 2-inch length suits tight-clearance installations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-thread replacement or installation nipple for 1-inch NPT threaded plumbing systems. Compatible with any fitting or valve accepting a 1-inch male pipe thread connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing codes. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before installation. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to the male threads before hand-tightening, then snug with a pipe wrench. Do not over-torque brass fittings, as the material is softer than steel and threads can be damaged.
