Selecting the right option
Choose the size to match your pipe threads, and check the thread gender at each end against the fitting it joins. Sizes are listed as the larger thread first, then the smaller. AAP also lists a 1-1/2 x 3/4 size (SSS4020), which AIMS does not currently list. Ask if you need it.
