HEX NIPPLE - NPT X METRIC
HEX NIPPLE - NPT X METRIC
The Hex Nipple – NPT x Metric is a high-quality threaded fitting designed to connect NPT (National Pipe Taper) and Metric threaded components. With NPT male threads on one end and Metric male threads on the other, this fitting provides a secure, leak-tight connection between systems with differing thread types, making it ideal for use in mixed-thread applications. The central hexagonal body allows for easy installation using standard wrenches, providing a firm grip during tightening, even in confined spaces. Manufactured from durable, corrosion-resistant materials such as Stainless Steel, Brass, Duplex, Monel, and Hastelloy, this fitting is available in a range of sizes and is designed to withstand harsh environments, including high-pressure and high-temperature systems. The Hex Nipple – NPT x Metric is widely used in industries such as oil & gas, chemical processing, marine, pneumatic, and instrumentation systems where both NPT and Metric threads are common.
