Product Overview
A long nipple is a pipe nipple that exceeds standard dimensions and is designed for connections spanning specific distances. When the distance between two female-threaded ports exceeds the length of a standard nipple, this product serves as an ideal connecting solution, eliminating the need for complex on-site cutting and threading of standard pipe.
Key Features
- Precision-machined from high-quality 304 stainless steel seamless tubing
- NPT (National Pipe Tapered Thread) connections on both ends
- 60° thread angle with 1:16 taper for secure mechanical seal
- Class 150 pressure rating for reliable performance
- Standard 4-inch length (approximately 100mm)
- No welding required - simple installation and removal
Material Advantages
304 stainless steel offers excellent corrosion resistance in most everyday environments, including water and air, effectively preventing rust. Its mechanical strength and cost-effectiveness make it ideal for durable pipe connections without excessive material costs.
Typical Applications
This long pipe nipple is versatile for various connection scenarios including plumbing systems, spacing requirements, and general piping applications. It's particularly useful for:
- Connecting faucets or valves through walls
- Assembling complex valve manifolds or instrument panels
- Providing standard spacing between components
- Connecting two fixed-position female threaded ports
