Pipe Nipples Supplier

To ensure reliability, durability, and compliance with international standards, forged pipe nipples are manufactured under strict quality control procedures. The production process adheres to several industry-recognized certifications and testing protocols, including:

Manufacturing Standards:

• ASME B16.11
• BS 3799
• MSS-SP-79
• DIN 2982 (on request)

Testing & Documentation:

• 100% Dimensional Inspection
• Hydrostatic / Pneumatic Testing
• PMI (Positive Material Identification)
• Hardness and Tensile Testing
• EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 Certified Test Reports

These quality checks guarantee that each pipe nipple meets customer specifications and global engineering expectations.

Packaging and shipping are handled with precision to maintain the product's integrity throughout transit and storage. The forged pipe nipples are securely packed following international export standards, ensuring safe delivery even in long-haul shipments. Here's what you can expect:

• Standard Packaging Options:
  • Packed in strong HDPE or corrugated boxes
  • Wrapped in polyethylene sheets to avoid moisture exposure
  • Fumigated wooden pallets or plywood cases for bulk and sea shipments
  • End caps provided (on request) to prevent internal thread damage
• Marking & Identification:
  • Each nipple is clearly marked with grade, size, heat number, and pressure class
  • Custom marking as per client requirements for traceability
• Delivery Details:
  • Timely dispatch with coordination for air, sea, or road transport
  • Support for FOB, CIF, and Ex-Works terms
  • Worldwide delivery through trusted logistics partners

Nipples come in a wide range of types to suit various piping requirements across industries. Each type is designed based on connection style, end finish, and dimensional needs. Below is a comprehensive list of nipple types offered:

1. Plain Nipple (PBE – Plain Both Ends):

   Ideal for welding applications or systems where threaded connections aren’t needed. Ends are beveled or square cut.

2. Threaded Nipple:

   Comes with NPT or BSP threads on both ends, suitable for quick connections without welding.

3. Swage Nipple:

   A reducer-style nipple that transitions between two different pipe diameters, used frequently in high-pressure systems.

4. Hex Nipple:

   Features a hexagonal center for wrench tightening; commonly used for joining threaded fittings securely.

5. Close Nipple:

   A very short nipple with threads almost the entire length—used where space is limited.

6. Barrel Nipple:

   Similar to close nipples but with extra length; typically has threads on both ends and a plain body in between.

7. Long/Extra-Long Nipple:

   Extended length nipples used when pipe extension is needed without using couplings.

8. Reducing Nipple:

   One end has a smaller diameter, allowing connection between pipes or fittings of different sizes.

Renowned for consistent quality and adherence to international standards such as ASME B16.11 and BS 3799, forged pipe nipples from India are widely exported to over 45 countries worldwide. These components are trusted by global clients across diverse sectors, including oil & gas, petrochemicals, marine applications, power generation, and offshore drilling operations. Their reliable performance, durability under pressure, and compatibility with NPT/BSP threading systems make them ideal for high-demand piping environments.

A reducer nipple, also known as a reducing nipple, is a type of pipe fitting designed to connect two pipes of different diameters. It features two male-threaded ends—one with a larger diameter and the other with a smaller diameter—allowing for a smooth transition between varying pipe sizes in a system.

When to use a reducer nipple:

• Flow Transition: When fluid or gas needs to move between two pipelines of different sizes without disturbing the system’s flow characteristics.
• Compact Installations: In applications where space is limited and reducers or adapters may not fit.
• Pressure Regulation: To manage system pressure by stepping down or up the flow line.
• Temporary or Custom Connections: When you need a quick or non-standard transition between equipment or lines.

Though both straight and hex nipples serve the purpose of connecting two female-threaded components, they differ in structure and utility:
