Dixon STV King combination nipples connect a hose shank to a grooved-end connection in low-pressure liquid suction or discharge service. These STV models are unplated steel, with nominal sizes from 1-1/2 through 4 inches.
Select the nipple to match the hose and grooved connection, then select the securing components for that assembly. This is a fitting, not a complete hose assembly; the hose, grooved coupling and hose attachment must be selected separately.
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Grooved end | Connects to a matching grooved coupling rather than a threaded port. |
| Hose shank | Provides the hose-side connection when paired with the correct hose and securing method. |
| Size-specific models | Choose the exact nipple size and MPN for both ends of the assembly. |

| Check | What to confirm |
|---|---|
| Hose and groove fit | Match hose dimensions and construction, groove dimensions, coupling and gasket to the selected fitting. |
| Hose attachment | Select a suitable clamping or crimp system; Dixon recommends available crimp sleeves for reliable assemblies. |
| Operating conditions | Confirm liquid compatibility, pressure and temperature with Dixon for the complete assembly. |
| Excluded service | Do not use for steam or compressible products such as air or nitrogen. |
| Assembly testing | Follow the applicable assembly test procedure. Dixon references testing oil suction/discharge hose at 1.5 times working pressure for 15 minutes without leakage or coupling movement. |
| California warning | Contains lead, a chemical associated with cancer and reproductive harm under California Proposition 65. |
