What is a brass nipple 3/4 inch?

A brass nipple is a short brass connector with male BSP threads at both ends. It joins two female-threaded fittings, valves or taps.

Nipples come in several lengths. Because brass does not rust, the joint can be undone and refitted during maintenance.

Key terms explained

Brass
An alloy of copper and zinc. It resists corrosion, machines cleanly and makes precise threads.
BSP thread
British Standard Pipe thread, the common pipe thread in Kenya. Taper threads (BSPT) seal as they tighten.
