Nipples

At Metrade, we provide premium quality Forged Fitting Nipples designed to deliver secure, reliable, and long-lasting pipe connections. Whether used for pipe extension, transitions, or maintaining system integrity, our forged nipples are crafted to handle high-pressure, high-temperature, and corrosive environments, making them an ideal choice for industrial applications requiring strength and performance.
A Nipple is a short, tubular pipe fitting that is primarily used to connect two other fittings or components in a piping system. It’s typically made from high-strength materials that are forged under intense pressure to ensure maximum durability and resistance to harsh conditions. Forged nipples are commonly threaded at both ends, allowing them to easily screw into other fittings, valves, or pipes. They are used to extend, connect, or join two sections of pipe together.
Forged nipples are engineered to meet high standards of quality and performance, ensuring they can withstand demanding conditions such as high pressures, extreme temperatures, and corrosive environments.
Types of Forged Fitting Nipples –
1.Hex Nipple:
Hex Nipples have a hexagonal body that allows them to be tightened or loosened with a wrench. These nipples are commonly used in applications where the fitting needs to be easily installed and removed, such as in systems where maintenance or adjustments are frequently required.
2.Swage Nipple:
A Swage Nipple is a type of pipe fitting that is used to connect two pipes with different diameters. It is a tapered, one-piece fitting that enables smooth transitions from one pipe size to another. The larger end of the swage nipple fits over a pipe, while the smaller end fits inside another, providing a tight, leak-proof connection. Swage nipples are commonly used in applications where pipe size reduction or expansion is required, providing an efficient and cost-effective solution.
3.Pipe Nipple:
A Pipe Nipple is a short piece of pipe that has threads on both ends, designed to connect two pipe sections or fittings. Pipe nipples can be used to extend or shorten the length of a piping system, allowing for easy integration of components. Pipe nipples are typically made from materials like carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel and are commonly used in low to medium-pressure applications. They come in a variety of lengths, from a few inches to several feet, depending on your system’s requirements.
