Certified to multiple industry standards, this pack of 25 fittings offers professional-grade reliability and durability for plumbing and industrial applications. ## Description The Merit Brass hex head plug is a class 125 lead free brass pipe fitting with male National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads for closing the end of a pipe. The plug inserts into female pipes or fittings and connects with NPT threads, which create a tighter seal than straight threads. This plug has a hexagonal head for increased leverage in installation and disassembly with a wrench. It is made from lead-free brass which is comparable in strength to stainless steel and more corrosion resistant. This class 125 fitting meets standards SAE J476, ANSI B 1.20.3, FED-STD-H28/8, and C2745 for quality assurance. Class is a standard relating to tolerance, construction, dimension, and wall thickness, but it is not a direct measurement of maximum working pressure. Pipe fittings are components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many different industries. When purchasing pipe fittings, consider the application, as this will affect material type, shape, size and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness). Merit Brass manufactures pipe nipples following ISO 9001 standards for quality assurance. The company, family-owned since 1937 and headquartered in Cleveland, OH, distributes pipe fittings in the United States and Canada. ## Features - Hex head plug for closing and terminating the end of a pipe - Male National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads for use with female threaded pipes - Made from lead-free brass for higher corrosion resistance than steel - Relative softness of metal enables tighter seals and greater ease in installation - Meets standards AE J476, ANSI B 1.20.3, FED-STD-H28/8, and C2745 for quality assurance ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00N9T3VG4 | | Brand | Merit Brass | | Brand Name | Merit Brass | | Color | Brass | | Connector Type | Plug | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 4 Reviews | | Exterior Finish | Brass | | Manufacturer | Merit Brass | | Manufacturer Part Number | NLBS117H-12 | | Material | Brass | | Material Type | Brass | | Model Number | NLBS117H-12 | | Size | 3/4 inches | | Thread Size | 0.75 inch | | Thread Type | NPT | | Unit Count | 25 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Merit Brass - **Color:** Brass - **Connector Type:** Plug - **Exterior Finish:** Brass - **Manufacturer:** Merit Brass - **Material:** Brass - **Size:** 3/4 inches - **Thread Size:** 0.75 inch - **Thread Type:** NPT ## Images ![Merit Brass NLBS117H-12 Lead Free Pipe Fitting, Hex Head Plug, 3/4" NPT Male (Pack of 25) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91VX+PBgTuL.jpg) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/799200369-merit-brass-nlbs117h-12-lead-free-pipe-fitting-hex-head](https://www.desertcart.us/products/799200369-merit-brass-nlbs117h-12-lead-free-pipe-fitting-hex-head) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-10-17*
