Sioux Chief 614-2 1/2" No-Hex Male Adapter, MIP Slip Connection
The Sioux Chief 614-2 is a 1/2" male adapter designed to transition from slip (solvent-weld) pipe to MIP (male iron pipe) threaded connections without a hex body. This no-hex profile makes it a practical replacement for standard male adapters in rough-in installations where a wrench grip isn't required or where clearance is tight. Sioux Chief notes this adapter style is also offered in 3/4" and 1" sizes, which plumbers commonly use for closet or urinal stub-out adapters, making the 614-2 part of a broader family suited to similar stub-out and transition applications at the 1/2" trade size.
Key Features
- Trade Size: 1/2" connection, sized for standard rough-in branch lines and stub-outs.
- No-Hex Design: Replaces a standard male adapter when a hex gripping surface is not necessary, allowing a lower-profile fit in tight spaces.
- Slip x MIP Configuration: One end is a slip (solvent-weld) fitting for connection into pipe, the other end is MIP (male iron pipe) threaded for mating to female threaded fittings or valves.
- Stub-Out Suited: Related 3/4" and 1" versions in this adapter style are specifically called out by the manufacturer as ideal for closet or urinal stub-out adapters, reflecting the intended rough-in use case for this adapter family.
- Bulk Packaging: Packaged 500 EA per carton, suited for contractor and distributor stock replenishment.

Why Sioux Chief?
Sioux Chief builds rough-in plumbing fittings with the installer in mind, and the 614-2 no-hex male adapter is a straightforward example: it solves a specific jobsite problem, fitting into tight spaces where a hex-body adapter won't clear, while keeping a familiar slip-to-MIP transition that plumbers already know how to install. Supplied in 500 EA cartons, it's packaged for contractors and distributors who need dependable, consistent rough-in components on hand for stub-out and transition work across residential and commercial jobs.
