Asc Engineered Solutions 830049003 Black Steel Nipple 3x12

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830049003 is a black steel close nipple measuring 3 inches in diameter by 12 inches in length. Black steel pipe nipples are threaded fittings used to connect sections of pipe in gas, oil, and industrial fluid distribution systems. This nipple provides a rigid, durable connection point in ferrous piping assemblies and is sized for use where a short, fixed-length extension or coupling is needed between fittings or valves. At 6.86 pounds, the fitting carries the mass expected of full-weight black steel construction. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or HVAC technicians working on applicable system types.

Black steel pipe nipples like the 830049003 are commonly used in commercial and residential gas distribution piping, hydronic heating systems, and industrial fluid lines. The 3-inch diameter makes this fitting suitable for higher-flow or larger-diameter branch and main line applications. It is not rated or intended for potable water service. This is an import fitting, which should be noted for projects with domestic-content requirements or certain public-works specifications.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Black steel pipe nipples are installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or applicable local mechanical codes. Shut off and verify absence of gas or fluid pressure in the line before disassembling or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or listed pipe-joint compound rated for the intended service medium before making up the connection. Black steel fittings are not suitable for potable water or compressed air systems unless specifically listed for such use.
