Buyer summary: Five nipple models list a 1/2-inch connection size but differ in design, material and their Pig or Piglet application label. A separate 0.5 L bowl lists its body, nipple and filter materials. Neither nominal connection size nor the application label establishes complete fit, operating pressure or flow.
This guide compares six pig-drinking equipment products for an itemised B2B quotation. It separates listed designs and materials from the technical information still needed for a system match. It does not prescribe mounting heights, flow settings, animal age/weight selection or a watering-system layout.
Keep similar piglet models separate by SKU
LIV00001 lists a hexagonal piglet nipple drinker in stainless steel; LIV00003 lists a hexagonal piglet model in copper. LIV00002 lists a flat-round piglet design in stainless steel. All three record 1/2 inch as the listed connection size. Shared size wording and similar names do not establish interchangeable internal parts, geometry or operating performance.
Preserve the Pig and Piglet labels without inventing age ranges
LIV00005 lists Pig, hexagonal design and stainless steel. LIV00013 lists Pig, bite-ball design and stainless steel. The compared fields do not define a weight or age range for Pig or Piglet, or establish that a design is suitable for a particular animal. Request the exact application documentation and relevant dimensions for assessment.
Treat 1/2 inch as a nominal connection field
The five nipple records do not identify thread standard, thread gender, taper, engagement length or sealing method. Do not silently turn a 1/2-inch label into BSP, NPT or a confirmed fit. Provide the existing line reference and request a connection drawing and product-specific confirmation. Operating pressure and flow rate also need separate data.
Read the bowl components independently
LIV00019 lists capacity 0.5 L, plastic bowl material, stainless steel nipple material and a stainless steel mesh filter. Its compared fields do not give connection size, bowl dimensions, mounting pattern, filter rating or a replacement-nipple reference. Do not borrow the 1/2-inch nipple connection field or infer a filtration performance from mesh material.
Confirm supply scope and operating documentation
Ask which mounting parts, seals, nipple or filter components are supplied in the quoted configuration and request the product-specific drawing and instructions. Stainless steel, copper or plastic does not establish a material grade, pressure rating, corrosion-life guarantee or certification. A bowl capacity does not establish animals served or water consumption.

Quotation checklist
- List SKU, required design/material and quantity separately.
- Request the dimensioned connection and mounting drawing, including thread standard and gender where relevant.
- Provide the existing system reference; request pressure, flow and written interface confirmation rather than relying on nominal size.
- Request documented application/fit information; do not assign an age or weight range from Pig or Piglet wording.
- For the bowl confirm its connection, mounting pattern, included nipple/filter and required replacement references.
- Request material-grade and required compliance documentation without assuming availability.
- Confirm supplied parts, packing units, destination, availability and commercial terms.
Frequently asked purchasing questions
Are the two hexagonal piglet models the same material?
No. LIV00001 lists stainless steel, while LIV00003 lists copper. Both use a hexagonal design and a listed 1/2-inch connection size; use the exact SKU.
Does 1/2 inch confirm BSP or NPT?
No thread standard or gender is established by the compared fields. Request a drawing and confirmation for the actual line connection.
Does Piglet define an exact animal age or weight range?
No. It is the recorded application label. The compared fields do not supply an age/weight range or a universal fit statement.
Does the 0.5 L bowl have the same connection as the nipples?
Not established. LIV00019 does not list a connection size in the compared fields. Its bowl, nipple and filter materials must not be used to infer a connection.
Does the stainless steel mesh specify a filter rating?
No. The LIV00019 filter field gives material and mesh form without a filtration rating or replacement reference. Request the needed specification for that SKU.
