Asc Engineered Solutions 830041406 Black Steel Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830041406 is a black steel pipe nipple used to connect sections of threaded pipe in plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping systems. Measuring 2.5 inches in diameter by 3 inches in length, this close-coupled fitting is manufactured from black steel and is threaded on both ends to accept standard pipe fittings. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install black steel nipples during rough-in and repair work on gas and liquid piping systems. The 830041406 weighs 0.95 pounds and is sourced as an import product.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial applications where short threaded connections are needed between fittings, valves, or equipment. Common install scenarios include natural gas and propane supply lines, steam and hydronic heating systems, compressed air headers, and general industrial piping where black steel is the specified material. Its 2.5-inch by 3-inch sizing makes it a useful transition piece when tight clearances or close coupling between fittings is required.

Key Features

• Black steel construction for use in gas, steam, and general mechanical piping systems
• 2.5-inch nominal diameter with 3-inch overall length for tight-clearance installations
• Threaded both ends for standard NPT pipe fitting connections
• Compact 0.95-pound weight for easy handling during installation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded black steel pipe nipple compatible with 2.5-inch threaded pipe fittings, valves, and couplings used in residential and commercial gas and mechanical piping systems.

Installation Notes

Black steel pipe nipples are installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable local codes, including the IFGC for gas piping applications. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium to all threaded connections before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded joints; use a pipe wrench with a backup wrench on the adjacent fitting to prevent stress on downstream connections.
