Title: Looking for my right Nipple
Post by: johnrm on April 09, 2013, 08:18:07 PM
I am looking for a 1/2" straight threaded Nipple.

I found a place called Petrochem in Cork today...

Who seem to have all manner of Piping EXCEPT Nipples :-(
I picked up a 3piece Ball Valve and Hose Barb, but ne'er a Nipple in sight!

In my quest for an appropriate Nipple I have come across the following site...
http://www.bargainfittings.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=36_39&product_id=198

So the quest continues, looking for the right Nipple, Locknuts and Washers. eBay?

Haha - Yes!!

I bought a length of tiling border stuff marked ~10 euro on the shelf.

Put it on the machine and it said
"Does this item cost 3.50?"

To which I of course answered "it does now" :)
No wonder theyre going to the wall :)
