IBP brass nipple 22 x 3/4 (model 4243G022006000) for plumbing connections

Brass nipple 22 x 3/4 by IBP is a threaded fitting designed to connect components or pipe sections with a 22 mm connection at one end and a 3/4-inch thread at the other. Manufactured from brass, the fitting provides mechanical strength and corrosion resistance appropriate for potable water and standard plumbing installations. The compact, straight design allows it to be used where a short metal connector is needed to join dissimilar thread standards within domestic and light-commercial pipework.

Advantages

The brass construction combines durability with resistance to corrosion and scaling, making the nipple suitable for long-term use in wet environments. Threaded ends provide reliable mechanical joints without the need for soldering or adhesive bonding, enabling quick installation and removal. Its dual-dimension design—22 mm on one side and 3/4 inch on the other—allows direct connection between metric and imperial threaded components, reducing the need for additional adapters.

Suitable for

• Connecting a 22 mm pipe or fitting to a 3/4-inch threaded fixture
• Domestic potable water systems where a metal threaded connector is required
• Repair or modification of existing plumbing with mixed thread standards
• Light-commercial plumbing applications using brass fittings

Key specifications

• Material: brass
• Connection 1: 22 mm thread
• Connection 2: 3/4-inch thread
• Design: straight nipple with external threads on both ends
• Typical use: potable water and general plumbing systems

How to use

Ensure both mating threads are clean and free of debris. Wrap the male threads with an appropriate thread sealant such as PTFE tape or apply a compatible pipe joint compound before hand-starting the nipple into the receiving thread. Tighten securely using suitable wrenches while avoiding over-torquing, which can damage threads or distort the fitting. After installation, pressurize the system and inspect the joint for leaks; retighten or reapply sealant if necessary.

Usage recommendations

For potable water installations, use thread sealants rated for potable systems. Avoid exposure to aggressive chemicals or highly acidic environments that can accelerate brass corrosion. When joining components of different materials, consider galvanic compatibility and use dielectric unions where required.
