Features & Specifications

• Model: 62459 — 3/8" short polypropylene threaded pipe nipple
• Material: High‑quality polypropylene for excellent chemical resistance and tensile strength
• Size: 3/8" diameter — common standard for plumbing and fluid-transfer systems
• Threading: Male threaded ends for secure, direct connections to female fittings
• Length: Short profile for installation where space is limited
• Weight: Lightweight compared to metal alternatives for easier handling and installation
• Durability: Non‑corrosive and rust‑resistant for long service life in harsh environments

Benefits & Applications

This 3/8" polypropylene pipe nipple solves common issues with metal fittings by eliminating rust and reducing maintenance. Its chemical resistance protects system integrity in water treatment, chemical processing, and agricultural applications such as irrigation, hydroponics, and aquaponics. The short length makes it the right choice for compact manifolds, laboratory rigs, and tight plumbing assemblies. Installers save time because threaded ends allow quick, tool‑friendly connections using standard Teflon tape or pipe thread compound.

Installation & Maintenance

Screw the male threaded nipple into compatible female fittings and tighten to a snug fit. Use Teflon tape or an approved pipe thread sealant to ensure leak-free joints. Periodic visual checks for leaks are recommended; polypropylene’s corrosion resistance reduces the need for frequent replacements.
