Question 1

What is the purpose of a swage nipple?

Accepted Answer

Swage nipples are used to bring the flow of fluids from one pipe size to another pipe size. You can find swage nipples that are plain, beveled or with threaded ends. The function of a swage nipple is to change the pipe's diameter and to connect two pipes of different sizes.

Question 2

What is the difference between a swage nipple and a reducer?

Accepted Answer

A swage nipple is a small fitting with a tapered transition, used to connect pipes of different diameters, often in high-pressure systems. A reducer, on the other hand, is a larger fitting that gradually changes the pipe size, commonly used in lower-pressure or general flow applications.

Question 3

What is the standard for swage nipple?

Accepted Answer

In general, the dimensions of a SWAGE nipple fall under the British Standard BS 3799 and the MSS SP95 standard of the Manufacturers Standardization Society of the Valve and Fittings Industry (MSS). The ANSI B36. 10 / 19M standard is used for the thickness.
