Brennan 5404-08-08-SS Stainless Steel Pipe Fitting, Hex Nipple, 1/2" NPT Male

This Brennan hex nipple is a stainless steel 316 pipe fitting with male National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads on both ends for joining two pipes or extending pipe length. It has NPT threads for creating tighter seals than straight threads and is made from stainless steel 316, which is more corrosion resistant than stainless steel 304. The hexagonal shape allows for increased leverage during installation and disassembly with a wrench. This fitting meets SAE J514 specifications for quality assurance.

Pipe fittings are components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many different industries. When purchasing pipe fittings, consider the application, as this will affect material type, shape, size and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).

Brennan Industries manufactures critical flow components. The company, founded in 1953 and headquartered in Solon, OH, meets International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9001:2008 standards and its fittings meet Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) specifications.
