Western Enterprises 701-4SF Regulator Nipple Filter 1/4 Npt

Product Description

The WESTERN ENTERPRISES 701-4SF is a brass regulator nipple with an integrated filter, threaded to 1/4 inch NPT. It is designed to connect gas regulators to downstream equipment while providing inline filtration to protect sensitive regulator components from particulate contamination. This fitting is a standard service component used by plumbers, gas fitters, and HVAC technicians working on low-pressure gas distribution and appliance connections. The brass construction offers corrosion resistance suitable for natural gas and propane service environments.

This nipple with filter is suited for residential and light commercial gas service applications where a clean, reliable connection between the regulator and supply line is required. It is installed at the inlet or outlet of a gas regulator in typical appliance or equipment hookups. The 1/4 inch NPT threading makes it compatible with standard gas train and regulator port configurations found across a wide range of service setups.
