Asc Engineered Solutions 830033601 Black Steel Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830033601 is a black steel pipe nipple sized at 1.5 inches by 4 inches, used to connect threaded pipe sections in gas, HVAC, and plumbing distribution systems. Constructed from black steel, this close-tolerance nipple provides a reliable threaded connection between fittings, valves, and pipe runs. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters install this type of nipple where a short threaded extension is needed between components. The 0.79-pound weight reflects standard-wall construction appropriate for typical trade applications.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial installations where black steel pipe is specified, including natural gas supply lines, LP gas distribution, steam systems, and hydronic heating runs. The 4-inch length makes it a common choice for short offsets and close coupling between valves, unions, fittings, and appliance connectors. It is not intended for potable water service, where galvanized or listed copper fittings are required by most codes.

Key Features

• Black steel construction suitable for gas and steam service
• 1.5-inch by 4-inch dimensions for short-run threaded connections
• Standard NPT threading for compatibility with standard black iron fittings and valves
• 0.79 pounds — manageable single-hand installation in tight spaces
• Import product — confirm project specifications and job requirements before ordering

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard stock nipple for use with 1.5-inch NPT threaded black iron or black steel pipe fittings in gas, steam, and HVAC piping systems.

Installation Notes

Black steel pipe nipples are installed by licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians. Shut off and depressurize the gas or fluid system completely before breaking any threaded connection. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before assembly. Torque connections per fitting manufacturer recommendations and local code requirements, and pressure-test all joints before returning the system to service.
