Asc Engineered Solutions 320201080 Taper Tapped Coupling 2 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 320201080 is a 2-inch extra heavy black steel taper tapped coupling designed for threaded pipe assembly in demanding industrial and commercial piping systems. The taper tapped thread design draws mating pipe threads into a tight, pressure-resistant joint as the fitting is torqued. Black steel construction suits gas distribution, fire suppression, and other high-pressure piping applications where galvanized coatings are not required. The extra heavy wall rating provides additional strength over standard and heavy designations, making this coupling appropriate for higher-pressure or higher-stress installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting.

This coupling is suited for use in commercial and industrial piping systems where extra heavy duty black steel fittings are specified. Typical applications include natural gas distribution piping, steam lines, and fire protection systems where threaded connections and extra heavy wall fittings meet code or engineering requirements. The 2-inch size fits standard 2-inch threaded pipe runs and is installed using conventional pipe wrenches and thread sealant or PTFE tape.

Key Features

• Extra heavy wall construction for greater pressure and mechanical strength versus standard fittings
• Taper tapped threads pull pipe into a secure, leak-resistant connection as the joint is tightened
• Black steel material is appropriate for gas, steam, and fire suppression piping applications
• 2-inch fitting size integrates directly into standard 2-inch threaded pipe systems
• Weighs 2.01 pounds, consistent with extra heavy steel wall thickness

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation threaded fitting for 2-inch extra heavy black steel pipe systems in commercial, industrial, and fire protection piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed pipefitter or plumber in accordance with applicable codes such as the IFGC, NFPA 54, or NFPA 13 depending on the service. De-pressurize and isolate the pipe section before making or breaking any threaded connection. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Use pipe wrenches to achieve a secure joint without over-stressing the fitting.
