Galvanized Close Nipple – Male Threaded NPT | Multiple Sizes
The Galvanized Close Nipple is a short, threaded pipe fitting designed to connect two female-threaded components with minimal spacing. Commonly used in livestock watering systems, agricultural irrigation, farm plumbing, and water distribution, close nipples provide a compact connection where a longer pipe nipple is not needed.
Featuring male NPT threads on both ends, with little to no unthreaded pipe between them, these galvanized fittings are ideal for connecting valves, fittings, and other plumbing components in tight spaces.
