It measures 4.5 inches in length with a 0.25-inch diameter and features 1\/4-inch male pipe thread (MPT) on both ends. The aluminum construction keeps weight low at 0.07 pounds and resists corrosion in many common service environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of close-pattern nipple when a short, rigid threaded extension is needed between two female-threaded fittings or components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a 1\/4-inch MPT-to-MPT threaded connection is required. Common install scenarios include instrument lines, air lines, gas pilot lines, and small-bore fluid circuits. Its aluminum material makes it appropriate for use in non-corrosive gas and fluid systems where steel or brass fittings would add unnecessary weight or where galvanic concerns with certain media apply. Always verify material and pressure compatibility with the specific fluid or gas being carried before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch MPT on both ends for straight male-to-female threaded connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4.5-inch length provides a compact rigid extension between fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum construction offers corrosion resistance and low weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.07 pounds, suitable for weight-sensitive assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMinimum order quantity of 1 for single-unit replacement needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 1\/4-inch MPT aluminum pipe nipple suitable for use with any 1\/4-inch female pipe thread (FPT) fitting or component in compatible piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC or IFGC requirements for the system type. Always depressurize and isolate the line before removing or installing threaded fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the joint. Do not overtighten aluminum fittings, as the material is softer than steel and threads can be damaged by excessive torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: MPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: MPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.07 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MIDLAND INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 76027\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67949291471154,"sku":"76027","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/477196e1e2619be6ae3beb69a7d8f2ff.jpg?v=1791687437","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-76027-aluminum-pipe-nipple-1-4-mpt-4-5-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
