Asc Engineered Solutions 830518684 Black Steel Xh Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830518684 is a black steel extra heavy (XH) pipe nipple sized at 3/4 inch by 3 inches. This close-tolerance threaded nipple connects two female-threaded fittings or valves in a piping run, providing a short rigid extension in the line. The extra heavy wall thickness offers greater durability and pressure capacity compared to standard-weight nipples. It is used in gas, steam, air, and industrial fluid piping systems and is typically installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians working on commercial or industrial pipe assemblies.

This nipple is suited for use in gas distribution lines, steam piping, compressed air systems, and general industrial plumbing applications where added wall strength is required. The black steel construction makes it appropriate for dry or gas service rather than potable water lines. The 3/4 inch by 3 inch dimension fits standard Schedule 80-equivalent XH pipe fittings in residential mechanical rooms, commercial boiler rooms, and light industrial settings.

Key Features

• Extra heavy (XH) wall construction for increased pressure and mechanical strength
• Black steel material suitable for gas, steam, and compressed air service
• 3/4 inch by 3 inch size with standard NPT threading on both ends
• Compact 3-inch length for tight-clearance pipe runs
• Weighs 0.33 pounds for easy single-hand handling during installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component compatible with standard 3/4 inch NPT female-threaded pipe fittings, valves, and couplings used in black steel piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local mechanical and plumbing codes, including IFGC requirements for gas piping. Shut off the gas supply or depressurize the line completely before breaking any connection. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before threading the nipple into fittings. Do not use black steel nipples in potable water or corrosive fluid applications.
