Product
The Nipple Fitting 3/8" Female x 1/2" Female (Ref: 381174) is a pneumatic adapter designed to connect two air lines or components with different thread sizes, ensuring a secure and leak-free transition in compressed air systems.
Specifications
- Brass or nickel-plated brass construction providing solid corrosion resistance and durability under standard pneumatic operating pressures
- Female 3/8" thread on one end and female 1/2" thread on the other, allowing connection between mismatched fittings
- Compact nipple design that minimizes space requirements in tight pneumatic installations
- Compatible with standard BSP or NPT threading commonly used in pneumatic tool setups
Usage
Thread the 3/8" female end onto a male 3/8" fitting and the 1/2" female end onto a male 1/2" fitting. Apply thread seal tape to male threads before assembly to ensure an airtight connection. Hand-tighten first, then use an appropriate wrench to secure without over-torquing. Verify there are no leaks before operating the pneumatic system.
