Sized at 1\/2 inch by 6 inches, it is manufactured from black steel for strength in higher-pressure and higher-temperature applications where standard-weight fittings are insufficient. The extra heavy wall thickness makes it a reliable choice when additional durability or pressure capacity is required. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of nipple in both new construction and retrofit work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and commercial piping installations where threaded black steel fittings are specified. Common applications include natural gas supply lines, compressed air distribution, and steam or hot-water heating systems. The 1\/2 inch diameter and 6 inch length make it a frequently used size in branch connections, equipment tie-ins, and close-quarter runs where a longer rigid nipple is preferred over a union or flexible connector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtra heavy (XH) wall construction for increased pressure and mechanical strength over standard-weight nipples\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack steel material resists mechanical damage in demanding piping environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch x 6 inch sizing for standard threaded pipe connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded ends compatible with standard NPT fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.52 pounds for easy handling and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1\/2 inch NPT threaded black steel piping systems in gas, air, and mechanical piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of black steel pipe nipples on gas lines must be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with IFGC and local mechanical codes. Shut off and bleed down the supply line before disassembling any existing fittings. Apply a listed thread sealant or pipe dope rated for the service medium to all male threads before assembly. After installation, leak-test all gas connections with an approved detection solution before restoring service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch x 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWall Weight Class\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extra Heavy (XH)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.52 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Import\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASC Engineered Solutions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 830514204\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233872838962,"sku":"0830514204","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307628306.jpg?v=1780110887","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-830514204-black-steel-xh-nipple","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
