Flushing Gas-Fired Water Heater

I used this 3/4" Lead-Free Nipple along with a 3/4" Full Port Threaded Ball Valve (Lead Free) to flush debris from a water heater. The original drain valve was not a full port valve and kept plugging as I attempted to flush the sediment & scale from the water heater. After allowing the heater to cool-down, I replaced the old drain valve using just 4-components: 1.) 3/4" nipple, 2.) 3/4" full port ball valve, 3.) garden hose adapter and 4.) hose cap. Worked great and the water heater is no longer banging, making for one happy client.

Extremely BAD QUALITY

A simple look at the machining of the threads will reveal several defects when manufactured. I would completely avoid this brand of nipple. I bought five and four are junk. Supply House needs to get this supplier up to an Acceptable Level of Quality, or get a different supplier.

Saved the Day

2" was to much and 1 1/2" was too short. I couldn't find 1 3/4 anywhere locally. Seems well made, threads were clean and easy install for my shower elbow. Happy that you had it in stock and I receding quickly.

Supply House Is Great

I am very pleased with the responsive nature of Supply House. Somehow a fitting was missed from my order. Supply House immediately sent the fitting and the contact person was a pleasure to work with resolving the issue. Prices are very competitive.

Hi Eduardo, thanks for writing in. This nipple uses standard national pipe thread, and the working pressure for 1/4" is 870 psi at 200 degrees F, or 760 psi at 300 degrees F.

Wow, that is a huge nipple. This must not be for a residential application? Any water, hydronic heating or domestic water applications, should be OK. From the posting, I didn't find a link to the product itself. Normally, nipples are the same size on each end.

Hello Learning Guy, I'm guessing you're considering using this fitting on the low pressure side of the coil on the air handler unit since a 1-1/4" pipe on the condensate line would be exceptionally large and plastic piping would work every bit as well and be much more cost effective. Threaded fittings on either the high pressure or low pressure freon lines are absolutely not allowed. Use approved soft copper or hard copper tubing and braze any fittings used (elbows, couplings, etc.). Do not use soft solder. Besides domestic water lines, the fitting you are asking about may be used in propane and natural gas lines. Hope this helps.

Q: Can anyone tell me what a 2 inch brass close nipple is in lay length? I have a span of 24" and the backflow assembly that I am putting in is 18.5 inches in lay length. Will (2) 2 inch close nipples make up the 5.5 inches? John

The 2" brass close nipple measures 2" long. You'll probably need to use longer 2" nipples to cover that gap.

Was this review helpful to you?
- Joe

A standard 2" close nipple is 2" long (coincidence, close nipple length isn't always the nominal diameter). Standard length used up screwing the pipes together for 2" pipe is about 0.75" (5 turns to hand-tight & three more with wrench). For your 5.5" to take up, you'll need 5.5" of pipe plus four joints worth (assuming 2" FIP connections at both ends of your opening and the backflow assembly) at 0.75" each, or 8.5" total. So order any two nipples whose length totals 8.5", like a 3.5" nipple and a 5" nipple. That's long enough you could put a union in. A standard 2" union is 2.75" long, from 5.5" leaves 2.75" pipe length to make up, now with 6 joints at 0.75" each. So you can use a 2" union and any three 2" nipples of length totaling 7.25". Standard nipples come in 1/2" length increments, so you'll have to either push that 18.5" to 18.75" (three 2.5" nipples) or pull it to 18.25" (two 2.5" nipples and one close (2") nipple). Joe

two 2" close nipples would not make the length that you want

No, a nipple has male threads on each end. Buy a nipple of the size you need. 2" is the nominal pipe diameter - which is very large for any residential or even most commercial applications. Can you tell us more about your situation. Does it have to be brass? Might be best to go to any good hardware store and take the assembly you are working with.

No, part TBN-06-64 is only threaded for about 9/16" on each end. There is a gap of close to 3" between the threaded portions of the nipple.
