A Blodgett 41800 Close Nipple links compatible fittings to maintain steady flow and dependable performance in the assembly.
The close nipple connects adjoining plumbing components in kettle, skillet and pan equipment to maintain a secure passage for liquids or steam within the system. Its short, close-fitting threaded design matters because it minimizes connection length, supports a tight seal and promotes reliable flow and pressure control.
The close nipple may need to be replaced if the equipment shows leaking, pressure loss or inconsistent fluid or steam flow during operation. Physical signs can include visible corrosion, cracked or worn threads, while environmental signs may include mineral buildup, moisture exposure or heat-related deterioration around the connection point.
