Pasco 4832-PA Nipple and Screw Extractor 1 Inch

Product Description

The PASCO 4832-PA is a 1-inch nipple and screw extractor designed to remove broken nipples, bolts, and screws from threaded fittings and pipe connections. The tool uses a left-hand spiral tapered flute design that bites into the broken piece as it turns, backing it out without damaging surrounding threads. This extractor is a common hand tool for licensed plumbers and pipefitters dealing with seized or snapped pipe nipples in supply lines, drain assemblies, and threaded fittings across residential and light commercial plumbing systems.

This extractor is suited for plumbing service and repair work where broken nipples or fasteners are lodged in threaded ports, unions, or fittings. The 1-inch size targets standard pipe nipple diameters commonly found in water supply and distribution piping. It is a go-to tool when a nipple shears flush with a fitting or valve body and standard removal methods are not an option.

Key Features

• Left-hand spiral tapered flute design backs out broken pieces as the extractor turns
• Removes broken nipples, bolts, and screws without thread damage to the surrounding fitting
• 1-inch size for standard pipe nipple applications
• Tapered flute bites progressively deeper for a secure grip on the broken piece

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style removal tool for 1-inch broken nipples and fasteners in standard threaded plumbing fittings and pipe assemblies.

Installation Notes

Shut off water supply and relieve system pressure before beginning extraction work. A licensed plumber or experienced pipefitter should perform this procedure. Drill a pilot hole into the center of the broken piece if needed before seating the extractor, and use appropriate hand tools or a tap wrench to drive the extractor counterclockwise. Do not apply excessive force that could further damage the receiving threads in the fitting.
