OVERVIEW

High-Performance Brass Connection for Industrial Gas Systems

The Western Enterprises BN-8-35HP is a premium brass pipe nipple designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial gas distribution and high-pressure fluid handling. Engineered with precision, this fitting serves as a critical component in the assembly and maintenance of gas manifolds, regulator stations, and pneumatic piping systems. Its robust construction ensures long-term reliability, making it a staple for facility maintenance teams and professional fabricators alike.

Constructed from high-grade brass, this nipple offers excellent resistance to corrosion and wear, a vital characteristic for components exposed to various industrial environments. The material integrity allows it to withstand significant internal pressures, boasting a rating of up to 3,000 psig (20,700 kPa). This high-pressure capability makes it particularly suitable for compressed gas applications where safety and leak integrity are paramount. Whether you are routing inert gases or building out a custom manifold, the structural strength of this brass nipple provides peace of mind.

The fitting features standard 1/2-inch National Pipe Taper (NPT) male threads on both ends. NPT threads are the industry standard for creating tight, leak-proof seals when used with appropriate thread sealants or Teflon tape. The tapered design ensures that as the fitting is tightened, the threads compress against each other, forming a mechanical seal that holds up under pressure. With a total length of 3-1/2 inches, this nipple provides the necessary spacing to clear obstructions or connect components that are set apart, offering flexibility in system design.

At Josef Gas, we understand that the quality of small fittings dictates the safety of the entire system. This Western Enterprises nipple is manufactured to strict tolerances, ensuring consistent thread quality and bore alignment. It is an essential inventory item for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) professionals who require dependable parts that fit right the first time. Whether replacing a worn section of pipe or fabricating a new drop station, this brass nipple delivers the performance required for professional industrial setups.

FAQ

The Western Enterprises BN-8-35HP is rated for pressures up to 3,000 psig (20,700 kPa).

It is constructed from high-quality brass.

This nipple has 1/2-inch NPT (National Pipe Taper) male threads on both ends.

The total length of the nipple is 3-1/2 inches.

Brass offers good corrosion resistance for general industrial use, but compatibility depends on the specific chemicals or gases involved.

Yes, brass is commonly used for water and other non-corrosive fluid applications, provided the pressure is within the 3,000 psig limit.

Yes, NPT threads require a suitable thread sealant or Teflon tape to ensure a leak-proof seal.

While brass is oxygen-compatible, this specific SKU is sold as a general industrial fitting. For oxygen service, fittings typically need to be cleaned specifically for oxygen use to remove all oils and greases.
