Asc Engineered Solutions 330067208 Black Steel Nipple 8x12

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 330067208 is a black steel pipe nipple sized at 8 inches by 12 inches. Pipe nipples are short lengths of externally threaded pipe used to connect two fittings, valves, or equipment ports in a piping system. This nipple is manufactured from black steel, making it suitable for gas distribution, steam, and industrial fluid piping applications. At 28.55 pounds, this is a heavy-duty fitting intended for large-diameter pipe runs. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians typically install fittings of this type during system assembly or repair of commercial and industrial piping systems.

This black steel nipple is used in large-diameter piping installations where a short, rigid threaded connection is required. Common applications include natural gas distribution headers, steam supply lines, and industrial process piping. The 8-inch nominal pipe size makes this fitting appropriate for high-volume flow systems in commercial or light industrial settings. It is not intended for potable water or domestic water supply use, consistent with its non-domestic classification.

Key Features

• Black steel construction provides strength and durability for gas and steam service
• 8-inch by 12-inch dimensions suit large-diameter commercial piping runs
• Externally threaded ends for direct connection to threaded fittings or equipment ports
• Non-domestic classification — not rated for potable water service
• Heavy-duty weight of 28.55 pounds reflects robust wall thickness appropriate for the nominal pipe size

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded pipe nipple for use in 8-inch black steel piping systems, including natural gas headers, steam lines, and industrial fluid distribution. Verify thread standard and pipe schedule compatibility with the existing system before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed pipefitter or plumber in accordance with applicable codes such as the IFGC or ASME B31 series for gas and pressure piping. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before making any threaded connections. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service type — confirm sealant compatibility with the conveyed fluid before use. Inspect threads for damage before assembly and do not over-torque connections on large-diameter steel fittings.
