Brass Nipple, 1" x 2"

For one-inch plumbing that needs a touch of length, the Midland Metal Mfg 1" x 2" Brass Nipple delivers a sturdy two-inch run with male NPT threads on both ends. It is a go-to fitting for joining control valves, unions, and elbows on higher-flow water softeners and whole-house filtration systems, where a rigid, reliable connection is essential.

The two-inch length is just right for clearing neighboring fittings and giving your wrench room to maneuver, while still keeping the connection short and solid. As with all good treatment-system plumbing, brass is the material of choice here: it resists rust, handles chlorinated water without degrading, and holds up in the perpetually damp environment that surrounds a softener or filter. A comparable steel fitting in the same location would be prone to scaling and corrosion over time, but brass keeps its threads clean and its seal dependable.

A workhorse connector for larger systems

One-inch lines carry the higher flow that bigger households and demanding systems require, so the fittings that join them need to be up to the task. This nipple spans the gap between a valve and a downstream tee, elbow, or shutoff with confidence, making it one of the more useful lengths to have on hand when laying out a high-capacity manifold.

• 1" NPT threads sized for high-flow lines
• Practical 2-inch length for valve and fitting spans
• Heavy-duty solid brass construction
• Resists corrosion, scale, and chlorine attack
• Approximately 0.22 lb each
• Compatible with tees, elbows, unions, and shutoffs

Thread it in with sealant tape for a clean, leak-free joint that holds up to system pressure and years of continuous service. The well-cut brass threads engage smoothly and seat the first time, so you are not revisiting the connection to chase drips. Whether you are plumbing a fresh install or upgrading an existing manifold, this nipple is a reliable, well-made link for one-inch water-treatment connections from a brand installers know and trust.

Should the line need to come apart down the road, the corrosion-free brass threads back out cleanly without the seized struggle that plagues rusted steel, keeping future service painless. Correctly sized and well-built for the higher flows of larger systems, this one-inch by two-inch nipple is a versatile, reliable fitting to have on hand for installs and repairs alike.
