Asc Engineered Solutions 830042206 Black Steel Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830042206 is a black steel pipe nipple used to connect threaded pipe sections in gas, oil, and industrial piping systems. Sized at 2.5 inches by 5 inches, this close-cut nipple provides a short, rigid threaded connection between fittings, valves, and pipe runs. The black steel construction makes it well suited for natural gas, propane, and hydronic heating lines where galvanized fittings are not required. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of fitting during rough-in and service work on low-pressure gas and fluid distribution systems.

This nipple is appropriate for residential and light commercial piping applications including gas supply lines, boiler connections, and general black iron pipe assemblies. The 2.5-inch nominal diameter suits larger-diameter branch lines and main supply runs where higher flow capacity is needed. It is installed using standard pipe wrenches and thread sealant approved for the service fluid.

Key Features

• Black steel construction suitable for gas, oil, and hydronic piping service
• 2.5-inch nominal diameter by 5-inch length for short rigid connections
• Threaded ends for connection to standard NPT fittings and valves
• Import product — 1.91 pounds per unit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT threaded black steel pipe nipple for use in residential and commercial gas and fluid piping assemblies requiring a 2.5-inch by 5-inch fitting.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, IFGC, and IPC requirements. Shut off and bleed gas or fluid pressure from the line before threading or removing any fittings. Apply a code-approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service fluid to all threaded connections. Inspect all joints for leaks after restoring pressure to the system.
