Galvanised Nipple for Plumbing Installations

This Legend Valve nipple connects two female-threaded fittings in water or gas lines. The 2-1/2" by 3-1/2" galvanised steel body suits residential and light-commercial pipework. It is sold new and ships directly from the manufacturer. Buyers who need a different diameter or length cannot use this fitting.

California Proposition 65 Compliance

The product carries a Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm. No thermal, acoustic or electrical specifications apply to this passive component. Normal use involves static fluid pressure without power draw or noise generation. Installers should follow local code requirements for handling.

E-Series Threaded Build Quality

The galvanised coating protects the steel threads from corrosion during extended service. Tapered pipe threads create a seal when tightened with appropriate joint compound or tape. The 356-185E model fits standard NPT connections without adapters. Systems requiring push-fit or compression joints will need a different fitting type.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 2-1/2" x 3-1/2" galvanized nipple without damaging the threads?

Apply pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads only, then tighten with a pipe wrench on the nipple body. The step people get wrong is using the wrench on the pipe ends instead, which crushes the fitting.

Will the galvanized coating on this nipple need replacement due to corrosion over time?

The galvanized finish protects the steel from rust, but constant water exposure can eventually wear it down. Inspect joints annually for white or red deposits; replace the nipple if threads show pitting or leaks appear.

What is the first limit reached when this nipple handles sustained hot water flow?

The California Proposition 65 warning indicates the product contains chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Under sustained high temperatures, the galvanized layer may degrade faster, potentially exposing the base metal.
