AAP Black Steel Close Nipple, 3/8"

This AAP black close nipple is a mild steel fitting with BSP threads. It is supplied in 11 sizes, 1/4" (8mm) to 4" (100mm). A close nipple is the shortest nipple: it is threaded for its full length, so two female threaded fittings can be joined with almost no gap. A is the overall length.

It is made to BS EN 10241:2000, as a steel threaded pipe fitting. It has a black finish. All sizes other than unions are sample tested to 5.2 MPa. These are test pressures, not working pressures.
