Close nipples are fully threaded end to end, leaving no unthreaded center. This fitting is commonly installed in gas piping, compressed air lines, and black iron plumbing systems. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians use close nipples when space between fittings is at a minimum and a standard nipple length cannot be accommodated. The fitting weighs 0.14 pounds and is manufactured from black steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis close nipple is suited for low-pressure gas distribution, compressed air, and general industrial piping applications where black steel pipe and fittings are specified. It is appropriate for both residential and light commercial installations. The 1 inch pipe size fits standard NPT-threaded female connections at that diameter. Installers use this fitting when transitioning directly from one threaded fitting to another, such as connecting a valve directly to a tee or coupling with no exposed pipe shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFully threaded end to end for close-coupled connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 inch nominal pipe size with standard NPT threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack steel construction suitable for gas and air service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor where clearance between fittings is limited\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.14 pounds per fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement close nipple for 1 inch black steel pipe systems using standard NPT threaded fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of black steel pipe fittings on gas lines must be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with IFGC and local code requirements. Shut off and verify zero pressure in the line before disassembling any threaded connections. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for gas service to male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten, as close nipples are fully threaded and can be difficult to remove once installed in a system under torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch x Close\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.14 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Import\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 830023800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233461076274,"sku":"0830023800","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307628265.jpg?v=1780100458","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-830023800-black-steel-close-nipple-1-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
