Asc 831001003 Galvanized Nipple 1/8 in X 3 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 831001003 is a close-pattern threaded pipe nipple constructed from galvanized steel. It measures 1/8 inch in diameter by 3 inches in length and is used to connect threaded pipe fittings in low-pressure piping assemblies. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments. This nipple is an import product and is a standard component stocked and installed by plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians working on gas, water, or compressed-air distribution systems.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications where a short threaded coupling between fittings or valves is required. The 1/8 inch size is common in instrument lines, pilot gas lines, and small-diameter branch connections. It threads directly into standard NPT female fittings and is compatible with typical black iron, galvanized, and malleable iron fittings used throughout the trade.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for wet and humid service
• 1/8 inch NPT threaded ends for standard pipe connections
• 3 inch length suits close-quarter runs and short offset connections
• Lightweight at 0.05 pounds per piece for easy handling and bulk staging

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT replacement nipple for use with galvanized, black iron, and malleable iron threaded fittings in residential and light commercial piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements for the service type. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly and tighten to hand-tight plus wrench-tight per standard practice. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or replacing any threaded nipple in an active system. Do not over-tighten, as this can crack female fittings made of cast or malleable iron.
