WES15-3SF - Western Enterprises 15-3SF Brass Inlet Nipple with Filter, 1/4" NPT x 3"

Western Enterprises 15-3SF Inlet Nipple with Filter

The Western Enterprises 15-3SF is a premium brass inlet nipple designed to provide secure and reliable connections for industrial and medical gas systems. Engineered for versatility, this component is compatible with a broad range of CGA nut types, including CGA 500, 510, 580, and 590, making it an essential spare part for maintenance teams and gas technicians. The unit features a standard 1/4" NPT thread, allowing for seamless integration into existing manifolds, pigtails, and regulator bodies.

One of the standout features of this nipple is its integrated filter. In high-pressure gas environments, particulate matter can cause significant damage to sensitive regulator diaphragms and valve seats. The built-in filtration system in the 15-3SF effectively traps debris, ensuring that only clean gas reaches downstream equipment. This protection is critical for maintaining the accuracy of flowmeters and extending the operational life of welding and laboratory apparatus.

Constructed from high-grade brass, the nipple offers excellent resistance to corrosion and deformation under pressure. It is rated for service up to 3000 PSIG (500 PSIG for Acetylene applications where applicable standards apply), making it suitable for heavy-duty industrial use. With a length of 3 inches and a precision-machined 11/16" hex, installation is straightforward, providing ample grip for wrenches to ensure a leak-tight seal. Whether used for Argon, Helium, Nitrogen, or Medical Mixtures, this Western Enterprises component delivers the quality and safety required for professional gas distribution.
