Looking for straight nipple

[pbartlett]

I moved last week and found that the movers lost a nipple that couples two internally threaded rods. These rods are part of a wardrobe rack that's several years old. I can't find the manufacturer's name on the rack and I've spent a lot of time visiting hardware stores and looking online for the nipple. You can see a picture at

looks exactly like what I need: about 3/4" long, 3/4" diameter,

16 threads-per-inch.

I'd be very grateful for any suggestions about where to find this thing.

Thanks!

Can't tell the size, but how about a lamp store?

3/4-16 is standard UNF thread. You should be able to buy a bolt at the local hardware store and cut the end off unless you need the piece to be hollow. If so, you could possibly drill out the center.

I would think a good hardware store would have something that'd work. If not,

might have a part.

that looks exactly like what I need: about 3/4" long, 3/4" diameter,

How about this McMaster-Carr part number 91301A200? Might be too short. Then this 91375A857
