Manufactured to ASTM A106 Grade B standards, this close-cut nipple is produced from seamless steel pipe, meaning no longitudinal weld seam is present. The extra heavy wall designation provides greater pressure capacity compared to standard schedule fittings, making it suitable for demanding piping systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple as a short connecting section between threaded fittings, valves, or pipe sections in black iron piping assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is appropriate for use in residential and commercial gas piping, steam, and high-pressure fluid systems where a short threaded connection is required. The 3\/8 inch by 2 inch dimension fits common branch connections, valve installations, and close-coupled piping configurations. It is an import product intended for general trade supply applications where ASTM A106B seamless construction is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eASTM A106 Grade B seamless construction — no weld seam for uniform wall integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtra heavy (XH) wall thickness for higher pressure ratings compared to standard schedule fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack steel material suitable for gas, steam, and non-potable fluid piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch nominal diameter with NPT-compatible threaded ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact 2 inch length for tight-space or close-coupled installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and general-use fitting for threaded black iron piping systems using 3\/8 inch nominal pipe connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, including IFGC and IPC requirements for threaded pipe connections. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can damage the fitting or adjoining valve seats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch x 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Seamless Extra Heavy (XH)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A106 Grade B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.11 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Import\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4354000820\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233250836786,"sku":"4354000820","price":19.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307628621.jpg?v=1780095404","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-4354000820-black-steel-xh-nipple-3-8-in-x-2-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
