Asc Engineered Solutions 830518742 Black Steel Xh Nipple

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 830518742 is a black steel extra heavy (XH) pipe nipple sized at 3/4 inch by 4-1/2 inches. XH nipples feature heavier wall thickness than standard Schedule 40 fittings, making them suitable for higher-pressure piping applications. This nipple is used to connect two threaded pipe sections or fittings in gas, steam, or industrial piping systems. Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or HVAC technicians working on commercial or industrial piping runs.

This nipple is well suited for use in commercial and industrial piping systems where extra heavy wall construction is required. Common applications include steam distribution lines, compressed air systems, and gas supply piping. The black steel construction makes it appropriate for dry or gas service rather than potable water supply. Contractors and tradespeople reach for XH nipples when standard-weight fittings do not meet the pressure or mechanical requirements of the installation.

Key Features

• Extra heavy (XH) wall thickness for higher-pressure service
• Black steel construction suitable for gas, steam, and industrial piping
• 3/4 inch by 4-1/2 inch dimensions for close-coupled connections
• Male NPT threads on both ends for standard pipe fittings
• Compact length reduces fitting count in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for 3/4 inch NPT threaded piping systems requiring extra heavy wall nipples in gas, steam, or industrial service.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, including IFGC or ASME B31 standards where relevant. Always shut off gas or steam supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium to all male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.
