Asc 4354002850 Black Steel Xh Nipple 1-1/2 X 4 Inch

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 4354002850 is a black steel seamless extra heavy (XH) pipe nipple sized at 1-1/2 inches by 4 inches. Manufactured to ASTM A106 Grade B standards, this nipple is a close-cut threaded fitting used to connect sections of pipe or to join valves, fittings, and equipment in piping systems. The seamless construction and extra heavy wall provide greater pressure-bearing capacity than standard weight nipples, making it well suited for demanding mechanical and industrial piping applications. At 1.09 pounds per unit, this is a solid, full-bodied fitting built for heavy-duty use. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers.

This nipple is intended for use in commercial, industrial, and mechanical piping systems where black steel pipe is specified. Common applications include steam, gas distribution, compressed air, and hydraulic piping runs. The extra heavy wall thickness is frequently called out in high-pressure systems or where code requires additional schedule capacity. It is an import fitting, appropriate for general trade use where domestic certification is not required by contract or specification.

Key Features

• Seamless extra heavy (XH) wall construction for higher pressure ratings than standard weight
• ASTM A106 Grade B black steel material
• 1-1/2 inch by 4 inch nominal size with threaded ends
• Black steel finish compatible with gas, steam, and mechanical piping systems
• Import designation — suited for general commercial and industrial applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for black steel piping systems using 1-1/2 inch nominal pipe in extra heavy schedule configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable plumbing and mechanical codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before making up the joint; do not over-tighten, as this can crack fittings or damage threads. Inspect threads on both the nipple and mating fitting before assembly.
