Asc 831011200 Galvanized Pipe Nipple 3/8 X 5 Inch

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 831011200 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 3/8 inch diameter by 5 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect two female-threaded fittings or to extend a piping run in tight spaces. This nipple is manufactured from galvanized steel, giving it corrosion resistance suitable for water supply, gas distribution, and general plumbing applications. At 0.24 pounds, it is a lightweight component used daily by licensed plumbers and pipefitters across residential and light commercial installations.

This nipple fits into piping systems where a 3/8 inch threaded connection is required. Typical applications include water supply lines, compressed air systems, and low-pressure gas lines. The 5 inch length makes it useful where a close nipple or hex nipple would be too short and a longer run is not needed. It is commonly installed in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, and utility spaces during new construction or service work.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for wet and outdoor environments
• 3/8 inch diameter fits standard NPT threaded fittings
• 5 inch length suits applications where close nipples are too short
• Lightweight at 0.24 pounds for easy handling during installation
• Threaded ends allow connection to standard female NPT couplings, tees, and valves

Compatibility

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

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with the International Plumbing Code or applicable local codes. Shut off supply pressure and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the joint. Do not over-tighten, as galvanized steel threads can be damaged by excessive torque.
