## ⚙️ Key Features

-   0.050 kg
-   Listed for 21 D series engine applications
-   From the Inlet and Exhaust System group
-   Threaded union giving a hose connection point

## 🔌 Function

Screws into a housing or tank to provide a spigot for a hose, sealing at the thread and giving a barb for the clip to grip.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Weeping or a damp film at the threaded joint
-   Hose creeping off the spigot or needing constant reclipping
-   Thread damaged or cross-started so the nipple will not pull down
-   Corrosion or a green crust around the boss
-   Body cracked at the shoulder found on removal

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Renew the sealing washer or o-ring rather than reusing it, and clean the female thread before starting the nipple
-   Take care with torque in an alloy housing - the nipple will strip the casting long before it strips itself
