Asc Engineered Solutions 830028403 Black Steel Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830028403 is a black steel close nipple designed for use in threaded pipe systems across plumbing, HVAC, gas distribution, and industrial piping applications. Measuring 1-1/4 inches in diameter by 2 inches in length, this nipple serves as a short threaded connector between fittings, valves, and pipe sections. Constructed from black steel, it is well suited for gas lines, steam systems, and other applications where galvanized coatings are not required. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install these components as part of low-pressure gas and fluid distribution systems. At 0.26 pounds, it is a compact, heavy-duty connector built to standard threaded pipe specifications.

This nipple is commonly used in residential and light commercial installations where a short threaded connection is needed between two fittings or between a fitting and a valve. Typical applications include natural gas supply lines, propane distribution, steam piping, and general black iron pipe assemblies. The 1-1/4 inch size is frequently found in branch lines and equipment connections in HVAC and plumbing systems. It is installed wherever a compact, rigid threaded coupling is required within a black iron pipe network.

Key Features

• Black steel construction suitable for gas, steam, and non-potable fluid applications
• 1-1/4 inch nominal diameter with 2 inch overall length for short-run connections
• Threaded ends for standard NPT fitting compatibility

• Lightweight at 0.26 pounds for easy handling during installation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded replacement nipple for use in 1-1/4 inch black iron pipe systems, compatible with standard NPT fittings and valves in residential and commercial gas, steam, and piping assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes, including the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) as applicable. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded components. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service type prior to assembly. Inspect threads for damage before installation and do not overtighten, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
