Legend Valve 356-180E Nipple
This galvanised nipple is a plumbing fitting designed to connect two female-threaded pipes or components in a water supply system. It suits installers and maintenance teams needing a short, close-threaded connector for 2-1/2 inch nominal pipe size. The E-Series designation identifies the product line within the Legend Valve range. It is sold new for residential or commercial bathware applications.
Verify thread compatibility and chemical suitability
Before ordering, confirm that the existing piping uses matching 2-1/2 inch NPT threads to ensure a proper seal. Check that galvanised steel is approved for the intended fluid type and local plumbing codes. The product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm, so review local regulations and safety data sheets. Ensure the close length fits the available space between fittings.
Replaces worn or damaged galvanised nipples
This fitting replaces an existing 2-1/2 inch close nipple that has corroded, leaked or been damaged during service. The upgrade is worth it when the old fitting shows thread degradation, mineral build-up restricting flow, or visible rust staining on connected fixtures. It restores a tight, leak-free joint without requiring pipe re-threading or system redesign. Do not use where dielectric unions or brass fittings are specified by code.

Questions about this item
Does the 356-180E nipple come with any gaskets or thread sealant, or must those be purchased separately?
The nipple is supplied as a single galvanised fitting; gaskets, tape or pipe dope are not included and must be sourced separately.
The listing shows only the 2-1/2" close length — how do I decide whether this size suits my piping run?
Choose this close nipple when the gap between two female threads measures exactly the threaded length of a 2-1/2" close piece; longer runs require a standard-length nipple instead.
What does the Proposition 65 warning mean for everyday handling of this galvanised nipple?
The warning indicates the fitting contains a listed chemical; wash hands after installation and avoid grinding or heating the galvanised coating to minimise exposure.
