  • Close-fit brass nipple installs in tight spaces

  • Durable brass construction resists corrosion in plumbing systems

4-inch Close Brass Nipple

This Legend Valve 311-220 nipple is a 4-inch close fitting made from no-lead red brass. It is intended for plumbing installations that require a short, corrosion-resistant connector between female-threaded components. The product is supplied new and carries California Proposition 65 warnings regarding chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

No-lead red brass construction

The no-lead red brass material provides durability and resistance to dezincification in potable water systems. The close-length design minimises the installed distance between connected fittings, leaving no extra thread exposure. This configuration suits tight assemblies where a standard short nipple would be too long, though it offers no adjustability once the joint is made up.

Threaded pipe compatibility

The nipple features standard male pipe threads on both ends for direct engagement with female-threaded fittings, valves or equipment. Brass threads allow repeated disassembly without the galling common on steel, which simplifies maintenance or reconfiguration. Installers must apply appropriate thread sealant or tape to ensure a leak-free joint, as the fitting itself supplies no sealing element.

Questions about this item

Will the 4-inch close brass nipple thread into my existing 311-220 fittings without leaks?

The Legend Valve 311-220 is a 4-inch close red brass nipple designed for standard NPT threads; it mates with matching brass fittings of the same nominal size and thread pitch.

How can I verify the no-lead brass nipple meets code after installation?

Pressure-test the joint at system working pressure and inspect for weeping; the red brass construction and no-lead alloy satisfy potable-water requirements where California Proposition 65 warnings apply.

Does the box include thread sealant or do I need to buy tape separately?

Only the 4-inch close brass nipple is supplied; pipe-thread tape or paste must be purchased separately to seal the NPT connections.
