OVERVIEW

Reliable Gas Connections with Western Enterprises

The Western Enterprises 615-3T Inlet Nipple is a precision-engineered component designed to facilitate secure and leak-free connections in high-pressure gas systems. Manufactured from durable, high-grade brass, this nipple is specifically tailored for CGA-580 service, making it the standard choice for inert gases such as Argon, Helium, and Nitrogen. Its robust construction ensures longevity even in demanding industrial environments, resisting corrosion and mechanical wear that can compromise lesser fittings.

Advanced Soft Tip Technology

What sets the 615-3T apart is its integrated Soft Tip. In traditional gas fittings, achieving a perfect seal often requires metal-to-metal contact that demands high torque, which can eventually mar the seating surface of the regulator or manifold. The Soft Tip design utilizes a specialized insert that conforms to the mating surface, creating a positive, gas-tight seal with significantly less force. This feature not only simplifies installation—often allowing for hand-tight setups when paired with appropriate nuts—but also drastically reduces wear and tear on your expensive gas equipment.

Versatile Application and Specifications

With a length of 3 inches and a standard 1/4" NPT thread, this nipple is highly versatile and compatible with a wide range of regulators, manifolds, and pigtails. It is rated for service pressures up to 3000 PSIG, ensuring safety and reliability in high-pressure cylinder applications. Whether used in a laboratory setting for precise gas analysis or in heavy industrial welding operations, the Western Enterprises 615-3T provides the assurance of a secure connection. It is an essential component for maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) professionals seeking to maintain the integrity of their gas distribution systems.

Quality You Can Trust

Western Enterprises is a leader in the compressed gas industry, known for products that meet strict safety standards. This nipple is no exception, offering peace of mind through superior engineering. By choosing the 615-3T, you are investing in a component that minimizes gas loss, enhances safety, and improves the overall efficiency of your gas management infrastructure.
