Am I missing something or is there no way to order off of the lawsupply website?


I guess it's just a brick and mortar store with no on-line ordering.
You'll probably have to use old technology to order from them. Maybe now
that you know the proper name for the piece, you may do better
calling/visiting plumbing suppliers in your area.

I need the pipe to be fully threaded, not just on the ends.

This is called a "running thread".

This type of nipple is most common in the elec trade, where
galv steel nipples are used. A few faucet mfr's used them
in brass, but they are not common today and hard to find.

knows about them.

http://www.lawsupply.net/brass_fittings/ips/
lists a brass running thread nipple

GOOGLE for more.




From what the OP described, perhaps the one listed as BF-N-005-RT 1/2
X 6 RUNNING THREAD NIPPLE on the lawsupply link would be the one he
needs. Just a matter of cutting the length to 3-1/2"
