Asc Engineered Solutions 830514147 Black Steel Xh Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830514147 is a black steel extra heavy (XH) pipe nipple sized at 1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inches. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect two fittings, valves, or threaded pipe ends in a piping assembly. The extra heavy wall designation indicates a heavier wall thickness than standard weight pipe, making this nipple suited for higher-pressure and higher-demand piping applications. It is a standard component installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors in commercial and industrial piping systems.

This nipple is used in black iron piping systems for gas distribution, compressed air, steam, and other compatible fluid services where black steel fittings are specified. The 1/2 inch diameter and 4-1/2 inch length make it a common close-coupling solution in tight spaces or where a specific standoff distance is required between threaded connections. It is an import product, not domestically manufactured.

Key Features

• Extra heavy (XH) wall construction for higher-pressure service compared to standard weight nipples
• Black steel material compatible with gas, steam, and compressed air piping applications
• 1/2 inch nominal pipe size with 4-1/2 inch overall length for precise spacing in assemblies
• Threaded ends for direct connection to standard NPT fittings, valves, and couplings
• Lightweight at 0.38 pounds per piece for easy handling during installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for black steel threaded piping systems using 1/2 inch NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, including IFGC requirements for gas piping applications. Always depressurize and isolate the piping system before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or tape rated for the intended service medium before making up the joint. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as this can damage threads and compromise the seal.
