## ⚙️ Key Features

-   0.136 kg
-   4 applications across the THD and DH series
-   Threaded union fitting

## 🔌 Function

Forms a threaded union in a fluid line, joining a hose or pipe fitting to a port on the engine.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Weeping or seeping at the threaded joint
-   Thread damaged or cross-started
-   Corrosion pitting on the body
-   Fitting cracked after over-tightening

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Check the bore is clear before fitting — a nipple is often the feed point or restriction for a circuit, and debris left in it will starve whatever it supplies
-   On tapered threads use the paste or liquid sealant specified for the fluid concerned, applied a few threads back from the open end; avoid thread tape on fuel and oil lines, where a shed shred travels downstream into filters, pumps and injectors
-   Where the nipple seals on a face or against a washer rather than on its thread, fit a new sealing washer instead of curing a weep by overtightening
-   Tighten to the figure in the workshop manual for your engine — these are small fittings in castings and are easily stripped, or the surrounding boss cracked
-   Support the pipe or hose so it meets the nipple square and without side load, then check the joint at working pressure and temperature
