Congratulations Terry on a fantastic site.
I need to connect 2 braided stainless faucet hoses together to get from my faucet to my water supply. I cannot use one hose as the one that came with the faucet requires a small male connection on one end.
Both hoses have 1/2" female IPS ends. I am using a hex nipple with 1/2" male NPT threads, to which I have applied teflon tape.
Is this correct? Should I use an IPS nipple? Should I NOT use thread sealant?
Thanks!
