Asc Engineered Solutions 830017208 Black Steel Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830017208 is a black steel close pipe nipple sized at 1/2 inch by 8 inches. It serves as a threaded pipe connector used to join sections of piping in gas, compressed air, and other compatible piping systems. The fitting is manufactured from black steel, making it well suited for dry applications such as natural gas and propane distribution lines. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple in both residential and light commercial settings where a short threaded connection is required between fittings, valves, or equipment.

This nipple is commonly used in residential and commercial gas distribution piping, compressed air lines, and industrial fluid transfer systems where black steel pipe is specified. The 1/2-inch size fits standard half-inch threaded pipe fittings and valves. It is appropriate for rough-in installations, equipment connections, and inline repairs where a fixed-length threaded nipple is needed. This is an imported fitting.

Key Features

• Black steel construction for use in gas, air, and dry fluid piping applications
• 1/2 inch by 8 inch dimensions for precise, fixed-length connections
• Threaded ends for direct connection to standard pipe fittings and valves
• Lightweight at 0.54 pounds for easy handling during installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard trade fitting for use with 1/2-inch black steel threaded pipe systems in residential and commercial gas and air piping applications.

Installation Notes

Black steel pipe nipples of this type are installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable code requirements, including IFGC guidelines for gas piping work. Shut off and depressurize the system before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Use appropriate pipe thread sealant or tape rated for the specific service medium. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can damage threads or fittings.
