Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original thread form and dimensional tolerances, ensuring a secure, leak-free connection in fluid or fuel line applications.

- Maintains Line Integrity — A worn or damaged nipple can cause fluid leaks that compromise hydraulic or fuel system pressure; replacing it promptly keeps the compactor running at full output.

A nipple is a short threaded fitting used to connect two sections of pipe, hose, or line within a machine's fluid, fuel, or hydraulic circuit. It provides a sealed junction point that maintains system pressure and prevents leaks. When a nipple becomes corroded, cracked, or cross-threaded, it can cause fluid loss, pressure drop, or contamination that affects the performance of the entire system — making timely replacement essential to keeping the compactor operating correctly.
