Asc Engineered Solutions 830004800 Black Steel Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830004800 is a black steel pipe nipple measuring 1/8 inch in diameter by 12 inches in length. This close-pattern threaded fitting connects sections of black iron piping in gas distribution, compressed air, and industrial fluid systems. At 0.25 pounds, it is a lightweight but solid-wall fitting designed for threaded assembly into standard black iron fittings, valves, and manifolds. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians typically install this type of nipple during rough-in work and system assembly. The black steel construction provides the durability required for low-pressure gas and air service applications.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications where a short, fully threaded extension is needed between fittings or at equipment connections. Typical uses include natural gas and propane distribution lines, compressed air drops, and industrial fluid piping where black steel is the specified material. The 1/8-inch size fits smaller branch lines and appliance connections common in residential gas systems.

Key Features

• Black steel construction for gas, air, and industrial fluid piping service
• 1/8 inch nominal diameter with 12-inch length for branch and extension runs
• Threaded ends for standard black iron fitting connections
• Lightweight at 0.25 pounds for easy single-hand handling during installation
• Import fitting suitable for standard-duty piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-stock fitting for black iron threaded piping systems using 1/8-inch nominal pipe size components.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes and IFGC requirements for gas piping. Shut off the gas supply or compressed air source and depressurize the line before disassembling or extending any piping. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections; follow standard pipefitting torque practice using a pipe wrench for a leak-free joint.
