What the hell is a "buffalo nipple"?? I overheard someone talking about
that today.

:wtf:

Yes I did google it, and it was apparently a company in Buffalo 90 years ago.

Again, :wtf:

2. I'm sorry, but the person talking about buffalo nipples was NOT a veteranarian
or a zoo-ologist.

Buffalo, N.Y. seems to be s pipe-fitting center

Mounting Methods > Typical

Additional Mounting Methods Conax offers numerous combinations of pipe nipples, hex nipples, unions and couplings to be used to mount your assembly to a vessel. These may also be used in combination with spring-loaded mounting devices. All pipe nipples and unions are 1/2 NPT stainless steel unless otherwise specified. Carbon steel is also available. Conax does not recommend the use of nipple combinations (N, NU, NUN or HN) without additional probe support.

( Nipples, union, couplings, mount, probe...... IBTL! )
