Asc Engineered Solutions 830018800 Black Steel Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830018800 is a black steel close-pattern pipe nipple sized at 1/2 inch by 12 inches. It serves as a threaded connector in gas piping, oil lines, and general plumbing assemblies where black steel is required. Weighing 0.82 pounds, this nipple is imported and manufactured from black steel, making it suited for systems that do not require galvanized or corrosion-resistant fittings. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this component when extending or connecting threaded pipe runs in low-pressure gas distribution and similar applications.

This nipple is commonly used in residential and light commercial gas piping systems, including natural gas and propane supply lines, as well as industrial fluid transfer applications where black steel fittings meet system material requirements. It fits into standard threaded pipe assemblies and pairs with black malleable iron or black steel fittings throughout a distribution network.

Key Features

• Black steel construction suited for gas and oil piping applications
• 1/2 inch nominal pipe size with 12 inch length
• Threaded ends for connection to standard NPT fittings
• Weighs 0.82 pounds for easy single-technician handling

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded black steel nipple for use in 1/2 inch pipe systems requiring black steel fittings and connectors.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where gas service is involved. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and verify zero pressure before disassembling any existing pipe connections. Use appropriate pipe thread sealant or tape rated for the service medium on all threaded joints. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage thread engagement.
