Asc Engineered Solutions 830029203 Black Steel Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830029203 is a black steel pipe nipple measuring 1-1/4 inches in diameter by 4 inches in length. Black steel nipples are close-cut threaded fittings used to connect sections of pipe in gas distribution, steam, and industrial piping systems. This nipple is manufactured from black steel, which provides the strength and heat tolerance required in fuel gas and steam applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install this type of fitting during new construction, system repairs, or retrofits requiring a short threaded extension between two female-threaded connections.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications including natural gas supply lines, propane distribution, steam heating systems, and industrial process piping where black steel is the specified material. The 1-1/4-inch size accommodates moderate-volume gas or fluid flow requirements common in branch lines and appliance connections. It is not intended for potable water service, where galvanized or approved plastic fittings are typically required.

Key Features

• Black steel construction provides durability and heat resistance for gas and steam service
• 1-1/4 inches nominal diameter for moderate-flow branch and appliance connections
• 4-inch length suitable for close-quarter threading between two fittings or valves
• Threaded ends for standard NPT-compatible connections
• Import product designation noted in specification data

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded black steel pipe nipple for use in gas, steam, and industrial piping systems accepting 1-1/4-inch nominal threaded fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, IFGC requirements for gas piping, or relevant mechanical codes for steam and process systems. Shut off and verify the absence of gas or system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or listed pipe thread compound rated for the service medium before making up connections. Do not over-tighten, as this can damage threads or cause misalignment in the piping assembly.
