Asc Engineered Solutions 830038006 Black Steel Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830038006 is a black steel pipe nipple sized at 2 inches by 4-1/2 inches. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect two fittings, valves, or other threaded components in a piping system. This nipple is manufactured from black steel, making it suitable for gas distribution, steam, and industrial fluid systems where corrosion resistance is not the primary concern. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors typically install these components during rough-in and system assembly work.

This nipple is used in residential and commercial piping applications including natural gas lines, propane distribution, steam heating systems, and general industrial piping. The 2-inch diameter accommodates moderate flow volumes, and the 4-1/2-inch length suits close-quarter connections where a longer pipe run is not needed. It threads directly into standard NPT fittings, valves, and manifolds of the same size.

Key Features

• Black steel construction suited for gas, steam, and industrial fluid service
• 2-inch by 4-1/2-inch dimensions for close-quarter threaded connections
• Standard NPT threading for compatibility with common fittings and valves
• Import designation noted for documentation and specification compliance purposes
• Compact nipple length reduces the need for additional couplings in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT threaded pipe nipple for use with 2-inch threaded fittings, valves, and couplings in gas, steam, and industrial piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any threaded components. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before making up the joint. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.
