Asc 831006606 Galvanized Pipe Nipple 1/4 in X 5 in

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 831006606 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple used to create threaded pipe connections in plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical piping systems. Sized at 1/4 inch nominal diameter by 5 inches in length, it provides a reliable, corrosion-resistant link between threaded fittings, valves, or other pipe sections. The hot-dip galvanized coating protects against rust and oxidation in standard service environments. At 0.16 pounds, this is a lightweight component suited for low-pressure utility, gas, and water supply applications where a short, close-coupled threaded connection is required.

This nipple is appropriate for residential and light commercial mechanical installations, including gas supply lines, water distribution systems, and HVAC condensate or utility piping. It is installed wherever a short threaded extension or riser is needed between two fittings or between a fitting and equipment. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians stock this size for common service and repair scenarios requiring a 1/4 inch male NPT connection on both ends.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in standard service conditions
• 1/4 inch nominal diameter x 5 inch length for close-coupled threaded connections
• Male NPT threads on both ends for compatibility with standard threaded fittings
• Lightweight at 0.16 pounds for easy handling and installation
• Import-sourced fitting suitable for general utility piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or new-installation nipple for any threaded piping system using 1/4 inch nominal NPT connections in plumbing, HVAC, or light mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC or IFGC requirements for threaded pipe connections. Apply thread sealant tape or paste appropriate to the service medium before making up the joint. Shut off the supply line and relieve system pressure before removing or replacing any threaded fitting. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.
