Asc 831018403 Galvanized Pipe Nipple 1/2 in X 11 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 831018403 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1/2 inch by 11 inches. Pipe nipples are short lengths of threaded pipe used to connect fittings, valves, and equipment in piping systems. This nipple is manufactured from galvanized steel, providing corrosion resistance suited to water supply, gas distribution, and general-purpose plumbing or mechanical applications. It is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors as a standard component in threaded piping assemblies.

This nipple is commonly used in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, gas lines, and industrial pipe runs where a 1/2-inch threaded connection is required and an 11-inch close-coupled extension is needed between two threaded fittings or components. The galvanized finish makes it appropriate for exposed or semi-exposed installations where mild corrosion protection is a factor.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for water and general-purpose piping applications
• 1/2 inch nominal pipe size with 11-inch overall length
• Threaded ends for standard NPT connection to fittings, valves, and equipment
• Lightweight at 0.75 pounds for easy handling during installation
• Import-sourced fitting suitable for non-critical general plumbing and mechanical use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded replacement or new-installation nipple for 1/2-inch threaded piping systems in plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off the water or gas supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly and tighten to hand-tight plus wrench turns per applicable code — consult IPC or IFGC for torque and joint requirements. Do not over-tighten galvanized fittings, as excess force can crack or distort the fitting.
