HEX NIPPLE - NPT X UF (REF. 6401)

HEX NIPPLE - NPT X UF (REF. 6401)

The Hex Nipple – NPT x UF (Ref. 6401) is a dual-threaded pipe fitting designed to connect two components with different male thread types: NPT (National Pipe Taper) on one end and UF (Unified Fine Thread) on the other. Featuring a central hexagonal body for easy wrench grip, this fitting is ideal for joining systems with dissimilar threading standards while ensuring a compact, leak-tight, and pressure-rated connection. Engineered for high-performance fluid, gas, and instrumentation systems, the Hex Nipple – NPT x UF is available in sizes ranging from 1/8” to 2” (or 3mm to 50mm) and is precision-machined from top-grade materials such as Stainless Steel, Brass, Duplex, Monel, and Hastelloy. Its dual-thread configuration makes it highly versatile in mixed-thread piping environments commonly found in industrial, process, petrochemical, and OEM applications.
