Brass to Copper

[mindless06795]

Hello,
Is it ok to join a 6" brass nipple to copper piping? This is for the tub spout. Thank you.

yes the brass is compatible with the copper. brass is an alloy of copper and tin.

Not only is the brass compatible with the copper, a 6" brass nipple may be used as a dielectric fitting to connect copper to iron pipe or an iron vessel.
