Asc 831010400 Galvanized Pipe Nipple 3/8 in X 3 in

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 831010400 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 3/8 inch x 3 inches. A pipe nipple is a short length of threaded pipe used to connect two fittings, valves, or other piping components. This nipple is constructed from galvanized steel, providing corrosion resistance suitable for water, gas, and general plumbing distribution systems. It is commonly installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on residential or light commercial piping runs where a close or short extension between threaded connections is required.

This nipple fits into standard 3/8-inch threaded piping systems and is well suited for water supply lines, gas distribution piping, and general mechanical system applications. The galvanized finish helps resist rust in both exposed and semi-exposed environments. At 3 inches in length, it provides a short but non-close extension between threaded fittings, making it useful when a precise spacing is needed between components in a tight piping layout.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in water and gas piping
• 3/8 inch x 3 inch size for standard threaded pipe connections
• Threaded on both ends for straightforward fitting-to-fitting installation
• Lightweight at 0.14 pounds per unit for easy handling in confined spaces

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded replacement or new-installation nipple for 3/8-inch pipe systems in plumbing, gas, and mechanical piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC depending on the service. Shut off the water or gas supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the joint. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
