Parker 215PNL-6-15 Long Nipple 3/8 Inch Mnptf Brass

Product Description

The PARKER 215PNL-6-15 is a brass long nipple fitting designed for industrial pipe assemblies requiring a reliable threaded connection. It features a 3/8 inch male MNPTF thread and a maximum working pressure of 1000 psi. The 1.5 inch overall length makes it suitable for close-quarter pipe extensions and inline connections across a wide range of fluid and pneumatic systems. Rated for temperatures from -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F, this fitting maintains integrity across demanding operating conditions. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians are the typical installers of this type of component.

This long nipple is suited for use in industrial fluid transfer, compressed air, hydraulic, and general-purpose pipe systems where a short threaded extension is needed between two female-threaded components. The MNPTF thread form provides a pressure-tight mechanical connection without relying solely on sealant. It is commonly installed in manufacturing facilities, process equipment, and commercial mechanical systems where brass fittings are specified for corrosion resistance and machinability.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard component for industrial pipe systems using 3/8 inch female NPT or NPTF threaded ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable IPC or facility piping codes. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free connection. Do not overtighten brass fittings, as the material can be damaged by excessive torque.
