Asc Engineered Solutions 830509469 Black Steel Xh Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830509469 is a black steel extra heavy (XH) pipe nipple designed for use in high-demand piping systems where added wall thickness and durability are required. Sized at 3/8 inch by 2-1/2 inches, this close-tolerance nipple threads directly into standard fittings and valves, providing a reliable short-run connection between components. Black steel construction makes it well suited for gas distribution, steam, and industrial piping applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians commonly install this type of nipple as part of routine service, repair, or new construction work on pipe assemblies.

This nipple is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial gas piping, steam lines, and general-purpose black iron piping systems. Its extra heavy wall classification provides additional strength over standard weight nipples, making it a preferred choice in applications subject to higher pressures or mechanical stress. It is imported and is not domestically manufactured.

Key Features

• Extra heavy (XH) wall thickness for added strength and pressure tolerance
• Black steel construction for compatibility with gas, steam, and industrial pipe systems
• 3/8 inch x 2-1/2 inch size for precise, short-run piping connections
• Threaded ends for direct connection to standard fittings, valves, and couplings
• Lightweight at 0.14 pounds per unit for easy handling during installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit component for black iron and black steel threaded pipe assemblies in residential and commercial gas or steam piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) where relevant. Shut off and verify the absence of gas or fluid pressure in the line before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply an appropriate pipe thread sealant or thread tape rated for the intended service medium before threading the nipple into place. Do not over-tighten, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
