(S215-6) CLOSE PIPE NIPPLE 3/8

Description & Features

Manufactured by Midland Industries, the (S215-6) Close Pipe Nipple 3/8 is a short-length threaded nipple designed for tight-clearance connections in industrial fluid and gas line assemblies. Close nipples have no unthreaded center section, making them well suited for applications where minimal spacing between fittings is required.

The 3/8 inch pipe size makes this nipple a practical choice for compact manifold configurations, valve connections, and inline fittings where a standard or hex nipple would add unwanted length. Midland Industries manufactures this fitting to consistent dimensional standards, supporting reliable thread engagement and leak-resistant assembly.

tight spot behind a valve. is a close nipple basically threaded the whole way, or does it have a little smooth section in the middle

For a close pipe nipple like this one, there is no unthreaded center section. It is made to be threaded end to end so you can join two female threaded connections with as little added length as possible.

Just want to make sure this'll work for hooking up some air lines in my garage? Need something real short.

This close nipple is a practical choice for compact setups, like what you're describing. It's made for spots where a standard nipple would stick out too far.
