This AAP galvanised hexagon reducing nipple is a mild steel fitting with BSP threads. It is supplied in 24 sizes, 1/4 x 1/8 in (8 x 6 mm) to 4 x 3 in (100 x 80 mm).
A hexagon reducing nipple has a male thread at each end, in two different sizes, and a hexagon in the middle for a spanner. It joins two female threaded fittings of different sizes. Sizes are listed as the larger thread first, then the smaller.

AAP states that all sizes of its fittings other than unions are sample tested to 5.2 MPa (manufacturer-stated). These are test pressures, not working pressures, so confirm the pressure and temperature for your application with AIMS before you order.

Selecting the right option
Choose the size to match your pipework. These fittings are BSP threaded, so check that your pipe or fitting is BSP and not NPT before you order. Sizes are listed as the larger thread first, then the smaller.
