Description

This High-Pressure Steel Reducing Nipple is engineered to connect two different sizes of high-pressure female pipe threads in a straight line. Rated for a heavy-duty 4,000 PSI, this forged carbon steel fitting features male threads on both ends to smoothly transition from a 3/8″ FPT port down to a 1/4″ FPT port, offering an incredibly durable, leak-proof connection for demanding fluid systems.

Key Specifications

• Connection Type A: 3/8″ MPT (Male Pipe Thread – Outer)

• Connection Type B: 1/4″ MPT (Male Pipe Thread – Outer)

• Material: High-Strength Forged Carbon Steel

• Pressure Rating: 4,000 PSI (Maximum Working Pressure)

• Design: Straight Hex Body Reducing Nipple

Product Highlights

• Inline Size Reduction: Integrates a 3/8″ to 1/4″ male thread transition into a single compact fitting, eliminating the need for multi-fitting adapters and reducing potential leak points in your plumbing network.

• Extreme 4,000 PSI Capability: Forged from premium carbon steel to safely handle heavy-duty operational pressures, intense hydraulic spikes, and fluid water-hammer shocks without weeping or cracking.

• Wrench-Friendly Hex Body: Precision-machined with a solid external hex profile in the center. This allows standard open-end wrenches, adjustable wrenches, or sockets to grip the fitting securely for maximum leverage during tightening.

• Vibration & Fatigue Resistant: High tensile strength ensures the tapered threads resist stripping, shearing, or backing out under the constant vibrations of commercial pumps and heavy machinery.

• Corrosion Protection: Finished with a durable zinc plating that shields the raw carbon steel from rust, moisture, and chemical exposure in rugged commercial wash and industrial environments.
