⚙️ Key Features

• Nipple 983779 carries the same application listing at 0.077 kg

🔌 Function

Forms a threaded union between a hose or pipe and a housing, so the line can be connected and broken without disturbing the casting.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Weeping or dripping at the threaded joint
• Thread corroded, stripped or cross-cut
• Sealing face bruised or scored so it will not seat
• Bore restricted by scale or debris, giving poor flow

🛠️ Service Notes

• The published listings do not separate this from 983779, so compare the fitting you removed for thread and tail size
• Renew the sealing washer or o-ring at the same time rather than reusing the old one

📦 Condition

• Brand new
• Supplied in original or equivalent packaging
