About This Product
Nipolet
Nipolet is listed among branch connection fittings used to create an outlet from a run pipe. The source describes forged construction and identifies Nipolet fittings in nickel-based materials, including Nickel 200, alongside stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, duplex, super duplex and other corrosion-resistant alloy options.
GS MetalFit’s product catalogue covers a range of branch outlet fitting types and material specifications for industrial piping requirements. Depending on the selected product design and applicable standard, available configurations may include threaded, socket-weld and butt-weld connections. Final dimensions, manufacturing requirements and material selection should be confirmed against the project specification and the applicable product drawing.
The source also refers to Nipolet fittings manufactured from Nickel 200 to connect reinforced branch fittings. The exact construction and suitability of a particular Nipolet design should be verified for the intended piping arrangement.

Material and Connection Selection
Nipolet Selection Note: Nipolet is identified as a branch connection fitting used in piping systems. The correct selection depends on the required branch connection design, run pipe and outlet sizes, end connection, material compatibility and project design requirements.
Stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, duplex and nickel alloy materials may be considered according to the intended service. Material selection should account for corrosion resistance, operating conditions and the applicable engineering specification.
Confirm the following before finalising the specification:
- Required branch connection design and end connection
- Run pipe size and outlet dimensions
- Pressure class and applicable pipe schedule
- Material grade and governing material standard
- Required testing, inspection and certification documents
- Project-specific sour-service or corrosion-resistance requirements
Product suitability, applicable standards and documentation should be confirmed with the supplier against the project's engineering requirements.
