Asc Engineered Solutions 830029609 Black Steel Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830029609 is a black steel pipe nipple sized at 1-1/4 inches by 5 inches. It serves as a short threaded connector used to join pipe fittings, valves, and equipment in gas, water, and mechanical piping systems. The black steel construction provides solid strength and is commonly specified for natural gas and propane distribution lines. At 0.83 pounds, this nipple is a standard close-to-short-length fitting suited for tight installation spaces. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of component as part of rough-in and service work on low-pressure piping assemblies.

This nipple is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial piping applications where a 1-1/4-inch threaded connection is required. Common installation scenarios include gas appliance supply lines, boiler piping, and mechanical room distribution headers. The black steel material makes it a typical choice for fuel gas systems where galvanized fittings are not permitted by local code. It is not intended for potable water service. This is an import fitting, which should be noted for projects with domestic-content requirements.

Key Features

• Black steel construction suitable for natural gas and propane piping systems
• 1-1/4 inch by 5 inch dimensions for a standard short-length threaded connection

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-pattern replacement or new-installation nipple for 1-1/4-inch NPT threaded piping systems in gas and mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IFGC or IPC. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or listed pipe-thread compound rated for the intended service medium. Do not use black steel nipples in potable water systems or where corrosion resistance is required.
