Description
Pipe nipples are short lengths of threaded pipe that join two fittings or a fitting and a valve. We stock hex, barrel, swage and grease nipples at our showroom in Nad Al Hamar, Dubai. As a result, contractors and maintenance teams across the UAE can collect the same day.
Types of Pipe Nipples We Stock
- Hex nipples: These have a hexagon in the middle, so you can tighten them with a spanner. Also, they join two female threaded ends in tight spaces.
- Barrel nipples: These are threaded at both ends with a plain middle. For this reason, they suit longer runs between fittings.
- Swage nipples: These change from one pipe size to a smaller one. They come concentric or eccentric, with plain, bevelled or threaded ends to MSS-SP-95.
- Grease nipples: Finally, these small fittings let you lubricate bearings and moving parts. See our grease nipple fittings for the full range.

We supply pipe nipples in ASTM A105 carbon steel, ASTM A182 F316L / F304L stainless steel and galvanised iron. In addition, you can choose NPT threads to ANSI B1.20.1 or BSPT threads to BS 21. For high-pressure lines, forged pipe nipples also come in 3000# and 6000# classes.
