Brass transition nipple TECE 16 mm x 1/2" G male (model 8610102)

Brass transition nipple TECE 16 mm x 1/2" G male is a compact adapter designed to join a 16 mm pipe to a 1/2" G male threaded fixture. Manufactured in brass, the nipple offers corrosion resistance and mechanical strength for plumbing and heating connections, enabling a secure metal-to-thread transition between plastic or metal tubing and threaded valves, taps or radiators.

Advantages

The brass construction provides long-term resistance to rust and wear while maintaining dimensional stability under pressure. Its compact design simplifies installation in confined spaces and ensures a leak-resistant mechanical connection when installed with appropriate sealing materials. The product is compatible with common plumbing systems and materials, offering reliable performance in water supply and heating applications.

Suitable for

• Connecting 16 mm plastic or metal pipe to 1/2" G threaded valves and fittings
• Domestic water supply lines
• Heating system connections to radiators or manifold outlets
• Repair and retrofit tasks where a threaded-to-pipe transition is required

Key specifications

• Material: brass (corrosion-resistant metal)
• Pipe connection size: 16 mm
• Thread type: 1/2" G male
• Application: potable water and heating systems
• Design: compact transition nipple for confined installation spaces

How to use

Prepare the 16 mm pipe end according to standard cutting and deburring practices to ensure a clean, square face. Insert or push-fit the pipe end into the appropriate connection side and secure the threaded side into the corresponding 1/2" G female fitting using the correct wrench size. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or tape on the male thread as required by the system and local regulations to ensure a watertight joint. Tighten to recommended torque for brass fittings without over-stressing the connection.

Ieteikumi par lietošanu

For reliable performance, check compatibility with the pipe material and operating temperature and pressure; replace any damaged sealing materials and inspect the joint after initial pressurization.
