The taper tapped design creates a pressure-bearing threaded connection that draws tight as fittings are installed. At 2-1\/2 inches, this coupling is suited for mid-to-large diameter pipe runs where a secure, rigid steel connection is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in gas distribution, industrial fluid lines, and commercial mechanical systems. The black steel construction provides strength and durability in non-corrosive service environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is used in residential and commercial piping applications where black steel threaded fittings are specified. Common installation scenarios include natural gas supply lines, compressed air distribution, fire sprinkler feed mains, and general mechanical piping. The 2-1\/2 inch size fits standard Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 black steel pipe of matching nominal diameter. Pipefitters and plumbing contractors typically use this fitting when joining two sections of pipe in a straight run requiring a threaded coupling connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack steel construction for strength in gas, air, and fluid piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTaper tapped threads draw tight for a pressure-bearing, leak-resistant connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-1\/2 inch nominal size fits standard black steel pipe of matching diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight coupling design for in-line pipe joining on threaded systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-stock fitting for use with 2-1\/2 inch nominal black steel threaded pipe in mechanical, plumbing, and gas piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC), or the International Plumbing Code (IPC) as appropriate to the service. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any fitting. Apply a listed thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service to the male threads before assembly. Do not use this fitting in systems or service environments for which black steel is not approved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taper Tapped\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.09 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 320200223\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51234088223026,"sku":"0320200223","price":75.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307627344.jpg?v=1780117309","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-320200223-black-steel-coupling-2-5in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
