Stainless Steel 316L Reducing Hex Nipple (NPT)
Join pipes of different diameters with total confidence using the Stainless Steel 316L Reducing Hex Nipple. This heavy duty fitting connects a larger pipe or valve to a smaller one in a straight line, making it the reliable solution for systems where size transitions are unavoidable. Built from marine grade 316 stainless steel, it stands up to rust, high temperatures, and harsh chemicals, so it keeps performing in the toughest conditions, from saltwater marine setups to demanding industrial process lines. The tapered NPT threads wedge tightly together to form a leak proof seal that holds firm under both liquids and gases, while the central hexagonal body gives a solid grip for a spanner wrench during quick, secure installation.
