Boshart NIPGL48 Galvanized Steel Reducing Nipple

Boshart NIPGL48 Galvanized Steel Reducing Nipple

The Boshart NIPGL48 is a galvanized steel reducing nipple built for rough-in and repair work where two different threaded pipe sizes need to be joined in a single run. This family is available in multiple reducing size combinations, allowing plumbers and contractors to step down between common threaded steel pipe sizes without adding a separate reducing coupling and an extra joint. Machined from galvanized steel for corrosion resistance in threaded piping systems, the NIPGL48 line is a straightforward, code-shop staple for water service lines, well systems, and general threaded steel piping where a compact size transition is needed behind the wall, under the floor, or in a mechanical room.

Key Features

• Reducing Size Range: Offered in a range of reducing configurations to transition between common threaded steel pipe sizes in a single fitting — select the combination that matches your run.
• Durable Construction: Galvanized steel body resists corrosion and rust in threaded pipe applications, standing up to the wear of rough-in and repair environments.
• Threaded Connection: Male threaded ends on both sides allow the nipple to thread directly into fittings, valves, or couplings without additional adapters.
• Reducing Design: Combines a size transition and a connecting nipple in one part, reducing the number of joints in a run and simplifying installation.
• Compact Footprint: A short overall length keeps the transition tight, which is useful in confined mechanical spaces, utility rooms, and tight rough-in cavities.
• Simplified Ordering: One part number family covers several common reducing combinations, so contractors can standardize on a single line of nipples for varied rough-in needs.
