Asc Engineered Solutions 830504882 Black Steel Xh Nipple

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 830504882 is a black steel extra heavy (XH) close-pattern nipple designed for use in threaded pipe systems across HVAC, plumbing, and industrial piping applications. Measuring 1/4 inch in diameter and 3 inches in length, this nipple serves as a short threaded connector between fittings, valves, and pipe runs. The extra heavy wall designation indicates a heavier wall thickness than standard weight pipe, making it suitable for higher-pressure and more demanding service conditions. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This nipple is appropriate for residential and light commercial piping installations where a 1/4-inch threaded connection is required. Common applications include gas supply lines, steam systems, compressed air distribution, and water piping where black steel fittings are specified. The extra heavy construction makes it a practical choice in systems that see elevated pressures or require additional wall strength at connection points.

Key Features

• Extra heavy (XH) wall construction for higher-pressure service
• Black steel material suitable for gas, steam, air, and water piping
• 1/4 inch x 3 inch dimensions for precise threaded connections
• Threaded ends for standard NPT fitting compatibility
• Lightweight at 0.13 pounds per unit for easy handling and installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard service fitting for 1/4-inch threaded black steel pipe systems in residential and commercial applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, including IFGC and IPC requirements where relevant. Shut off gas or fluid supply and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can damage threads or crack fittings.
