Asc Engineered Solutions 830037602 Black Steel Nipple 2x3.5in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830037602 is a black steel pipe nipple sized at 2 inches by 3-1/2 inches. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect two female-threaded fittings, valves, or equipment ports within a piping system. This nipple is manufactured from black steel, making it well suited for gas distribution, compressed air, and industrial fluid conveyance applications where galvanized or stainless fittings are not required. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians are the typical installers of this type of fitting in both new construction and retrofit work.

This nipple is appropriate for residential and light commercial piping systems carrying natural gas, propane, steam, or air. The 2-inch nominal pipe size fits standard Schedule 40 piping configurations. The 3-1/2-inch length makes it useful in close-quarters runs where a longer nipple would create clearance issues or where a close nipple is too short to accept a wrench. It is commonly used between shutoff valves, unions, tees, and threaded equipment connections.

Key Features

• Black steel construction suitable for gas, air, and steam service
• 2-inch nominal pipe size with 3-1/2-inch overall length
• Male NPT threads on both ends for standard pipe fittings
• Import designation noted for projects with domestic-content requirements

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded replacement or new-install fitting compatible with 2-inch Schedule 40 black steel piping systems using female NPT-threaded couplings, valves, and fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation of black steel pipe nipples on gas lines must conform to applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC). Shut off and verify the absence of gas or system pressure before disassembling any threaded connection. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium to all male threads before makeup. Use a properly sized pipe wrench to achieve a secure connection without over-stressing the fitting.
