Overview
The Parker 7/8″ hex nipple is a straight pipe fitting used to connect and extend female NPT ports in hydraulic, pneumatic, and general fluid systems. Manufactured by Parker Hannifin (formerly Dixon), these fittings feature male National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads on both ends and a hexagonal body for secure grip and installation. This listing is a lot of three new, open-box units.
