This fitting uses a tapered thread profile to create a tight mechanical seal when mated with corresponding threaded pipe ends. Extra heavy wall construction makes it suited for industrial, commercial, and heavy mechanical piping systems where standard-weight fittings are insufficient. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of coupling as part of threaded black steel pipe assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is used in black steel pipe systems found in commercial and industrial gas distribution, fire suppression, steam, and high-pressure fluid lines. The extra heavy designation indicates a wall thickness greater than standard or Schedule 40 fittings, making it appropriate for systems that operate under elevated pressures or require additional mechanical strength at the joint. It is a field-standard threaded coupling for trade professionals working with NPT-compatible black steel pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.5-inch fitting size for use with matching NPT threaded black steel pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtra heavy wall construction for elevated pressure and demanding service conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTaper tapped thread profile promotes a secure, leak-resistant threaded joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack steel material suitable for gas, steam, and high-pressure fluid piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeighs 3.53 pounds per unit, reflecting robust extra heavy construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install fitting for 2.5-inch extra heavy black steel threaded pipe systems using standard NPT tapered threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of threaded black steel pipe fittings should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes, including the International Fuel Gas Code or International Plumbing Code where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service fluid before making up the joint. Do not over-tighten, as this can crack or distort the fitting threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extra Heavy Taper Tapped\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.53 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: 320201098\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233794261298,"sku":"0320201098","price":129.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307627388.jpg?v=1780109110","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-320201098-taper-tapped-coupling","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
