Overview
Join two air connections without an adapter stack using this brass hex nipple distributed by FleetPro Parts & Tires. It carries two 1/4in male NPT pipe ends, so it threads a valve, a gauge port, a tee or a coupling straight into the next component with one short, rigid link. The alternative is what most trucks end up with - two adapters and a length of line doing a job one fitting should do - and every extra joint in that stack is another place the system can weep down overnight. Supplied under the Automann brand at Fleet Standard grade, we stock these heavily right here in our Hanover Park, Illinois warehouse to ensure lightning-fast shipping for fleets, diesel repair shops, and owner-operators nationwide.
One Fitting, Two Ports: The 1/4in Hex Nipple Advantage
This is standard NPT pipe connection hardware for truck and trailer air-brake and air-accessory plumbing. Both ends are 1/4in male NPT and tapered, so each joint tightens as it is driven and seals on the thread flanks - one fitting, two dry connections, and nothing in between to work loose against vibration.
The brass body resists the condensate, compressor oil carryover and road salt that live inside a heavy-duty air system, and it will not gall or rust into the components at either end - which matters on a nipple, because it is buried between two parts and both of them have to come apart eventually. The hex in the middle gives a wrench somewhere to bite, so the nipple can be torqued properly instead of being turned by whatever it is screwed into. It also carries forward the older Automann 177.9042 reference.
At FleetPro Parts & Tires, we know the shortest plumbing run is the one that stays sealed. This Automann nipple is a direct replacement for highly searched industry numbers including Eaton 3325X4 and Parker 216P4.

Key features
- Kills The Adapter Stack: Two 1/4in male NPT ends link a valve, tee, gauge port or coupling directly, removing the extra joints that weep the tanks down overnight.
- Tapered NPT Both Ends: Each end tightens as it is driven and seals on the thread flanks, so one fitting delivers two dry connections.
- Wrenchable Hex Centre: The hex flats let the nipple be torqued properly instead of turning it by whatever component it is threaded into.
- Brass Against The Wet Side: Resists condensate, compressor oil carryover and road salt, and will not gall into the parts at either end when they come apart later.
- Supersedes 177.9042: Carries the older Automann reference forward for shops ordering from earlier parts lists.
