Nippolet

Stainless Steel Gaskets

The Nippolet is a specialized branch fitting used for connecting small diameter branch pipes to larger run pipes, offering a compact and efficient solution for piping systems. It is commonly employed in industries such as oil and gas, petrochemical, and water treatment, where space constraints and precise connections are critical.


Constructed from high-quality materials, the Nippolet is designed to withstand high pressures and temperatures, ensuring durability and reliability. Its design provides a secure and leak-proof connection, optimizing fluid flow and minimizing the risk of system failures. The Nippolet meets stringent international standards, including ASTM, ASME, and MSS-SP, ensuring superior quality and performance. Its precise engineering and compact construction make it an ideal choice for piping systems requiring efficient small-diameter branch connections.

Applications of Nippolets:

Nippolets are used to create a branch connection from a main pipe, offering a smaller, more compact alternative to other branch fittings. They are particularly useful in applications where space is limited or where a smaller branch connection is required. Key applications include:

  • Oil and Gas Industry: Employed to provide smaller branch connections for instrumentation, monitoring, and control devices in pipelines transporting oil, gas, and other hydrocarbons.
  • Chemical Processing: Used in chemical plants to create compact branch connections for instrumentation and control systems, helping to maintain the integrity of the chemical processes.
  • Power Generation: Applied in power plants for creating smaller branch connections in steam, water, and fuel pipelines, facilitating efficient operation and monitoring.
  • Water and Wastewater Management: Utilized in water treatment and wastewater systems to provide compact branch connections for sensors, valves, and control devices.
  • HVAC Systems: Used to create smaller branch connections in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems, optimizing space and maintaining system performance.
  • Pulp and Paper Industry: Employed to provide compact branch connections for monitoring and control devices in pipelines handling pulp, water, and chemicals.
  • Marine and Shipbuilding: Applied in marine piping systems to create space-efficient branch connections, ensuring reliability and durability in harsh marine environments.
