Asc 831000609 Galvanized Pipe Nipple 1/8 in X 2 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 831000609 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1/8 inch male NPT x 2 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect two female-threaded fittings, valves, or pipe ends in a piping assembly. This nipple is hot-dip galvanized for corrosion resistance, making it suitable for use in water, gas, and general-purpose piping systems. It is installed by plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians during new construction, repair, and retrofit work.

This nipple is commonly used in residential and light commercial piping applications where a short threaded connector is needed between fittings, valves, or equipment connections. The 1/8-inch size is frequently found in low-pressure gas piping branches, instrument connections, and auxiliary plumbing lines. Its compact 2-inch length suits tight spaces and close-nipple configurations in a variety of piping layouts.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for wet and outdoor environments
• 1/8-inch NPT male threads on both ends for standard pipe system connections
• 2-inch overall length suits short-reach and close-quarter installations
• Lightweight at 0.03 pounds, minimizing load in overhead or compact assemblies
• Import product suitable for general-purpose piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or new-installation NPT pipe nipple for residential and light commercial gas, water, and general-purpose piping systems with 1/8-inch female-threaded connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench to bring threads to full engagement without over-torquing. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any threaded fittings.
