King Combination Nipple Grooved End
King Combination Nipple Grooved End is designed to provide a secure transition between grooved piping systems and hose connections for low-pressure suction and discharge service.
The fitting combines a grooved end x hose shank connection and is available in unplated steel, galvanized steel, and 316 stainless steel. The hose shank provides dependable hose retention when used with compatible clamps or ferrules.
Product Highlights
Combination nipple designed to transition between grooved piping systems and compatible hose assemblies.
Available in multiple material options for low-pressure suction, discharge, and compatible liquid-transfer applications.
Technical Specifications
Combination Nipple Configuration
The grooved end provides compatibility with an appropriately sized grooved piping system and compatible grooved coupling.
The opposite end provides a hose shank designed to connect to compatible flexible hose using the appropriate clamp or ferrule.
King Combination Nipple Design
The grooved end is designed to integrate the combination nipple with compatible grooved piping systems. This creates a transition from a grooved pipe connection to a flexible hose assembly through a single fitting configuration.
Confirm the required grooved connection size and mating coupling before installation. The grooved-end connection should be properly matched to the piping system and complete assembly requirements before use.
The hose shank provides the connection surface for compatible flexible hose and is designed to provide dependable retention when used with the appropriate clamp or ferrule. Correct hose sizing is important for proper assembly.
The hose, clamp or ferrule, and nipple should be selected as compatible components for the intended service. Verify hose construction, connection method, and operating conditions before assembling the completed hose connection.
The supplied product information identifies this combination nipple for low-pressure suction and discharge service with compatible liquids. This makes the fitting suitable for a range of industrial and general fluid-transfer installations.
Operating pressure, transferred media, hose construction, and complete system requirements should be reviewed before installation. The fitting should only be used where the full assembly is compatible with the intended service conditions.
The supplied information identifies unplated steel, galvanized steel, and 316 stainless steel as available material options. These choices allow the fitting material to be selected according to the environment and application requirements.
Material selection should consider corrosion resistance, transferred media, surrounding conditions, and mating-system compatibility. Confirm the required construction before ordering so the nipple corresponds to the intended application.
Installation & Selection Considerations
Confirm the required nipple size.
