Asc Engineered Solutions 4354002050 Black Steel Nipple 1x4 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 4354002050 is a black steel seamless extra heavy (XH) pipe nipple sized at 1 inch x 4 inches. Manufactured to ASTM A106B standards, this nipple is designed for high-pressure and high-temperature piping systems where standard-weight fittings are not sufficient. The extra heavy wall construction provides added durability and pressure-handling capacity compared to standard or schedule 40 fittings. It is a close-ended threaded nipple used to connect pipe runs, valves, and fittings in commercial and industrial piping assemblies. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this component.

This nipple is suited for use in steam, gas, and liquid piping systems in commercial and industrial settings. The black steel construction makes it appropriate for natural gas distribution, steam lines, and fire protection piping where galvanized or coated pipe is not required. At 1 inch x 4 inches, it fits standard NPT threaded connections in that nominal pipe size. It is classified as an import fitting and is not domestically produced.

Key Features

• Extra heavy (XH) wall construction for increased pressure capacity over standard-weight nipples
• Seamless black steel body, manufactured to ASTM A106B specification
• 1 inch nominal pipe size, 4 inches in length with NPT threaded ends
• Black steel material is compatible with gas, steam, and non-potable water piping applications
• Import classification for cost-effective sourcing in volume piping jobs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard component for extra heavy black steel threaded piping systems using 1 inch nominal NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) where applicable. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium to all threaded connections. Do not over-thread or cross-thread the nipple, as this will compromise the pressure integrity of the joint.
