Plumb Shop Div Brasscraft MP33-10PCLF Chrome Nipple 3/8 in Mipt

Product Description

The PLUMB SHOP DIV BRASSCRAFT MP33-10PCLF is a chrome-plated pipe nipple designed for residential and light commercial plumbing installations. Threaded 3/8 inch Male Iron Pipe Thread (MIPT) on both ends, this nipple measures 3 inches in length and provides a short, rigid connection between threaded fittings, valves, or supply lines. The chrome finish delivers corrosion resistance suitable for exposed installations such as under-sink supply connections and faucet risers. The part is lead compliant, meeting current federal and state requirements for drinking water contact. Licensed plumbers and experienced plumbing contractors are the typical installers for this type of fitting.

This nipple is suited for potable water supply applications where a compact, chrome-finished close nipple is required. Common installation scenarios include connecting shutoff valves to faucet bodies, extending threaded outlets on supply stops, and making up short runs in exposed under-sink plumbing. The 3/8 inch MIPT thread size is standard for lavatory and kitchen faucet supply connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe joint compound rated for potable water to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as chrome-plated fittings can crack if excessive force is applied.
