Solving the depth problem. JAL Extension Nipples (or Extension Pieces) are the unsung saviours of bathroom installation. When a plumber buries the water pipe too deep inside the wall, a standard tap won’t reach it. These heavy-duty brass extensions bridge that gap, bringing the connection point precisely to the tile surface.
We understand the importance of large-scale construction projects and are equipped to deliver premium solutions tailored to your requirements.
You can use an “Internal Allen Key” or the internal hex grip design (if available), or carefully use a pipe wrench on the outer body. Using an internal tool is preferred as it prevents scratching the visible chrome finish during installation.
No. They are threaded at both ends. Cutting one end removes the thread needed to hold the tap. You must buy the correct size. JAL offers a wide range of specific lengths, so you can easily find the exact dimension required to bridge the gap without modification.
No. JAL extensions are made of Brass and chrome-plated. They will never rust like iron nipples. This corrosion resistance is essential not just for longevity, but also to prevent ugly brown stains from forming on your bathroom tiles over time.
If the extension is too long, the tap won’t sit flush against the wall. If it’s too short, the tap threads won’t catch. Precision sizing is key. We recommend measuring the depth of your recessed pipe with a ruler before purchasing to ensure a completely stable and gap-free installation.
