Asc 830500328 Black Steel Xh Nipple 1/8 in X 4 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830500328 is a black steel extra heavy (XH) pipe nipple sized at 1/8 inch by 4 inches. This close-tolerance threaded fitting connects sections of pipe in gas, air, and industrial piping systems where standard-wall fittings are not rated for the application. The extra heavy wall thickness provides additional strength and pressure capacity over standard-weight nipples. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors use this nipple to make up threaded connections in tight spaces or where system pressure demands heavier pipe wall construction.

This nipple is suited for use in residential and light commercial piping applications involving gas distribution, compressed air lines, and general industrial service. Its 1/8-inch nominal pipe size makes it appropriate for small-diameter branch connections and instrumentation runs. The black steel construction is standard in gas piping systems where corrosion protection is provided by coatings or system design rather than galvanizing.

Key Features

• Extra heavy (XH) wall construction for higher pressure and strength ratings than standard-weight nipples
• Black steel material suitable for gas and industrial piping applications
• 1/8-inch nominal pipe size with 4-inch overall length
• Threaded ends for straightforward make-up with compatible fittings and valves
• Lightweight at 0.10 pounds, easy to handle during installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for threaded black steel piping systems using 1/8-inch nominal pipe size components.

Installation Notes

Installation of threaded black steel nipples in gas piping systems must be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter and comply with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC). Shut off and depressurize the system before making or breaking any threaded connection. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before assembly. Inspect threads for damage before installation and do not force cross-threaded fittings.
