Asc Engineered Solutions 830523205 Black Steel Close Nipple 1 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830523205 is a 1-inch close nipple made from black steel with an extra heavy (XH) wall designation. A close nipple is a short threaded pipe fitting used to join two female-threaded fittings with minimal clearance between them. This fitting is used in gas, water, and mechanical piping systems where a tight, compact connection is required. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of fitting during rough-in work and system assembly. The extra heavy wall construction provides added strength for higher-pressure or higher-stress applications compared to standard-weight nipples.

This close nipple is suited for residential and commercial piping installations where 1-inch threaded connections are required. It is commonly found in gas distribution lines, steam systems, and industrial fluid piping. The black steel material makes it appropriate for dry-system applications such as natural gas and propane supply lines, as well as fire sprinkler systems and compressed air lines. The close length minimizes exposed thread and keeps fittings tight to each other, which is useful in confined spaces or where a compact manifold layout is needed.

Key Features

• Extra heavy (XH) wall construction for added strength in demanding piping applications
• Black steel material suitable for gas, steam, and industrial fluid service
• Close nipple configuration minimizes space between connected fittings
• 1-inch NPT threaded ends for compatibility with standard pipe thread fittings
• Lightweight at 0.20 pounds for easy handling during installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard component for 1-inch threaded black steel piping systems. Compatible with standard NPT female-threaded fittings, valves, and pipe connections of the same size and thread standard.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes, including IFGC guidelines for gas piping. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before assembly. Do not overtighten, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
