The Plasson Threaded Reducing Nipple 5065 (3/4in x 1/2in) is a precision-molded BSP threaded component designed to connect two female-threaded fittings or valves of differing sizes within a water distribution network. It is widely utilized by plumbing, irrigation, and utility professionals to reduce or step up pipe sizes seamlessly, serving as a durable, non-corrosive alternative to traditional brass or bronze fittings.
 
Manufactured from high-grade virgin polypropylene, this reducing nipple offers exceptional impact strength, environmental stress resistance, and complete immunity to rust and electrochemical corrosion. Featuring standard male tapered BSP threads on both ends—stepping down from 3/4-inch to 1/2-inch—it ensures a reliable, high-integrity joint when installed with appropriate PTFE tape or jointing compound.
 
Engineered for quick and straightforward installation, the hex-shaped central body allows for secure tightening with standard spanners or wrenches. Fully WRAS-approved for wholesome potable water supply and rated for high working pressures up to 16 bar (PN16), this trade-quality threaded reducing nipple provides long-term, leak-free service across domestic, commercial, and agricultural fluid systems.
