Merit Brass Nipples, Elbows and Stainless Threaded Fittings
Merit Brass began in Cleveland in 1937 and is still family-owned, now run by the third and fourth generations. That history shows up in the catalog: a company that has made threaded pipe fittings for more than eighty years knows which sizes and lengths pros keep asking for.
The red brass nipples are lead-free and Schedule 40, and the chrome plated versions cover exposed runs where appearance counts. Lengths in the current listings run from 2 inches up to 9 inches, with brass street and 90-degree elbows alongside them.
Stainless is the second half of the line. Merit T304 threaded fittings are rated for 150 PSI, and the forged Class 3000 outlets handle branch connections where a standard tee is too bulky. If you are matching a specific length, the brass nipples listing is the quickest place to compare sizes.
