Description
The Zinc-Plated Steel Hex Nipple (MPT x MPT) is a durable pipe fitting designed to connect two female-threaded components in plumbing, pressure washing, and hydraulic systems. Featuring male pipe threads on both ends and a hex-shaped center, this fitting allows for easy tightening with standard wrenches while maintaining a secure, leak-resistant connection.
Constructed from zinc-plated steel, this hex nipple offers improved corrosion resistance compared to bare steel. While the zinc plating helps protect against rust, some corrosion may still occur in water-exposed environments, particularly over long-term use.
Available in sizes ranging from 1/4" MPT x 1/4" MPT through 1" MPT x 1" MPT, this fitting supports a wide range of system configurations. Pressure ratings vary by size, making it suitable for both light- and heavy-duty applications when properly selected.
