Asc Engineered Solutions 830046603 Black Steel Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 830046603 is a black steel pipe nipple sized at 3 inches by 6 inches. Pipe nipples are short sections of pipe threaded on both ends, used to connect two female-threaded fittings or valves in a piping run. This nipple is constructed from black steel, making it well suited for gas distribution, industrial piping, and fire suppression systems where galvanized fittings are not required. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians routinely install this type of fitting during new construction and retrofit work. At 3.08 pounds, it is a sturdy, full-weight fitting built to handle standard service pressures.

This nipple is appropriate for use in residential and commercial piping applications where a 3-inch nominal pipe size connection is required. Common installations include natural gas and propane supply lines, steam systems, and general industrial fluid conveyance. The 6-inch body length provides enough reach to clear flanges, meters, valves, or structural obstacles in tight mechanical rooms and utility chases. This fitting is classified as an import product.

Key Features

• Black steel construction suitable for gas, steam, and industrial piping service
• 3-inch nominal pipe size with 6-inch body length for flexible spacing in piping runs
• Threaded on both ends for direct connection to standard female NPT fittings and valves
• Solid 3.08-pound construction indicates full material weight and wall integrity
• Non-domestic sourcing noted for procurement and project compliance tracking

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 3-inch NPT threaded piping systems in residential and commercial mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Plumbing Code (IPC), or the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where gas service is involved. Shut off the gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before disassembling any existing fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before making up the joint. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as black steel threads can be damaged by excessive force.
