FAQ

The CGA 580 connection is the standard for inert gases, including Argon, Helium, and Nitrogen. It is also used for many Argon/CO2 shielding gas mixtures.

This nipple features a 1/4" NPT male thread, which is a common standard for connecting to regulator bodies, pigtails, and manifold blocks.

The WES15-11 has an overall length of 4-1/4 inches (4.25"), providing extra clearance compared to standard short nipples.

This brass nipple is rated for service pressures up to 3000 PSIG, suitable for standard high-pressure industrial gas cylinders.

No, CGA 580 is strictly for inert gases. Oxygen cylinders use CGA 540 connections. Never force a fitting onto the wrong cylinder valve.

The nipple features an 11/16" hex section, allowing it to be tightened securely with a standard wrench.

Yes, the Western Enterprises 15-11 is machined from solid brass, offering durability and spark resistance.

No, this SKU is for the nipple only. The mating nut (typically a CGA 580 nut) must be purchased separately or reused if in good condition.
