Asc 831002209 Galvanized Pipe Nipple 1/8 in X 6 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 831002209 is a galvanized steel close-pattern pipe nipple sized at 1/8 inch nominal diameter by 6 inches in length. It connects sections of threaded pipe in low-pressure plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping systems. The zinc galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance in exposed or moderately humid environments. This nipple is threaded on both ends and sized for standard NPT fittings. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting during new construction and retrofit work where a short, fixed-length male-to-male connection is required between couplings, valves, or other threaded components.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications including water distribution, gas supply lines, and compressed air systems where 1/8-inch NPT threaded connections are specified. Its 6-inch length makes it appropriate for bridging short gaps between fittings without requiring a union or field-cut pipe section. Import sourcing is noted in the product specifications.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for exposed piping environments
• 1/8-inch nominal diameter with 6-inch length for precise, fixed-length connections
• Threaded both ends for standard NPT fitting compatibility
• Lightweight at 0.12 pounds per unit, easy to handle in tight spaces
• Import product suitable for general-duty plumbing and mechanical applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-duty replacement or new-installation nipple for 1/8-inch NPT threaded pipe systems in plumbing, gas, and mechanical piping assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements for the system type. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope rated for the intended service before threading the nipple into fittings. Hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench to achieve a leak-free seal without over-torquing the small-diameter threads. Shut off system pressure and verify zero pressure before disassembling any existing piping connections.
