This 1 piece brass pipe fitting connector is a 3/4' NPT to 1' NPT male hex nipple reducer. It provides a compact, reliable way to connect components with different male NPT thread sizes in a single, sturdy brass body. The hex design allows easy tightening with standard wrenches, helping to ensure a firm seal in a variety of piping and fitting configurations. Key benefits Size transition: converts 3/4' NPT male threads to 1' NPT male threads, enabling a simple reducer in your piping setup. Durable material: brass construction offers strength and corrosion resistance for long service life in plumbing and related applications. Easy installation: hex nipple design provides a secure grip for efficient tightening with common wrenches. Reliable connection: single piece construction minimizes leak points and simplifies assembly with compatible NPT fittings. Compact and versatile: suitable for tight spaces where a compact reducer is required. Key attributes Material: Brass Ends: 3/4' NPT male to 1' NPT male Type: Male hex nipple reducer (two male NPT threads) Quantity: 1 piece Thread standard: NPT Compatibility and performance Compatible with standard NPT threaded pipes and fittings that match 3/4' and 1' sizes. Designed for use in plumbing, irrigation, and related systems that employ male NPT connections. Built to provide a solid, durable connection when mated with appropriate matching components and sealant. Applications and use cases Use case 1: Adapting a 3/4' NPT water supply line to a 1' NPT valve or appliance in a residential or commercial plumbing installation. Use case 2: Transitioning a pneumatic or air line from 3/4' NPT to 1' NPT in equipment or workshop setups where space is limited. Use case 3: Replacing a damaged reducer in a smallscale system, allowing a straightforward, onepiece copper brass connection between different pipe sizes. Installation tips Ensure that all mating threads are clean and of debris. Apply an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before installation. Tighten using two wrenches or a suitable wrench to prevent twisting and to achieve a proper seal. Do not overtighten; follow standard torque guidelines for NPT connections to avoid thread damage.
