Product description
The Steel NPT Seamless Pipe Nipple is a pipe nipple, in carbon steel, trivalent zinc plated. It is threaded NPT male on both ends. NPTF and NPSM pipe adapters join pipe-threaded ports and swivel ends on hydraulic, pneumatic and lubrication lines.
Construction
- Body: pipe nipple
- End 1: NPT male
- Material: carbon steel, trivalent zinc plated
Ends and sealing
- NPT: taper pipe thread that seals on the thread flanks, with sealant or tape; ASME B1.20.1.
Sizes
70 part numbers, 1/8" to 1-1/4". The Sizes & Part Numbers tab lists the size and dimensions in millimetres for every one.
Pressure rating
The manufacturer publishes no pressure rating for this family. Tell us the working pressure your line sees and we will confirm the fitting is rated for it before you order.
How to order
Quote the Indus part number from the size table. If you only have the fitting, send the thread or tube size on each end, and Indus engineering will confirm the part number. Price and lead time are confirmed with the quotation.

Failure analysis
Using sealant on hydraulic threads: which joints want it, and which are ruined by it
Tape on a tapered thread is correct. Tape on a cone, a flat face or an O-ring boss is how a good joint is made to leak — and how debris gets into the system.

Specification & standards
Stopping an NPT leak: tape, sealant, or neither
A tapered thread seals on the thread itself, which is why it needs help. Every other connector on the machine seals somewhere else, which is why putting tape on it makes the leak worse.

Thread & fitting identification
NPT, NPSM and SAE hose fittings: taper, swivel, flare and O-ring boss
Five American hose-end families that get confused because they share inch sizes. Which seals on the thread, which on a cone, which on an O-ring — and how to tell NPT from NPSM before it leaks.
