Greetings,
Found this recently in an area where we found artillery shells. I was told it was a fuze adapter, and I was told it wasn't.
??
Thanks in advance for all help

Looks like a hose nipple. They were used on all sorts of automotive applications.

Cudamark, Thanks for reply. Looking around for an exact match, no luck yet, I will reluctantly ostracize it from my fuze collection for now!!

This is similar. Steel, but, I've seen them in brass too.

Found this post and they claim it would have to be threaded the entire length..

Looks to me like a fitting for a cast iron radiator, that piece would have a nut shaped piece around it and it would thread into the radiator and then the valve would attach with the nut shaped part that's missing.

70 and on MOPAR heater nipple. Would have been installed with a square drive in the unthreaded end.

Would the radiator fitting be brass?
