Asc Engineered Solutions 830001806 Black Steel Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830001806 is a black steel pipe nipple sized at 1/8 inch by 4-1/2 inches, used to create threaded connections in piping assemblies. Manufactured from black steel, this nipple is suited for low-pressure gas, air, and general industrial piping systems where galvanized or stainless fittings are not required. At 0.08 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight fitting that installs quickly between threaded pipe sections. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians reach for black steel nipples regularly when assembling gas supply lines or service piping on boilers, furnaces, and unit heaters.

This nipple is commonly used in residential and light commercial piping applications involving natural gas, propane, compressed air, or steam systems where black steel is the code-accepted material. The 1/8-inch thread size makes it appropriate for small-diameter branch connections, instrument taps, gauge ports, and low-flow service lines. It is an import fitting intended for general trade use where domestic-origin certification is not a project requirement.

Installation Notes

Black steel pipe nipples are installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians in accordance with applicable codes such as the IFGC and ASME B31 standards. Always shut off the gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
