Asc Engineered Solutions 830527768 Black Steel Xh Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830527768 is a black steel extra heavy (XH) pipe nipple measuring 1-1/4 inches in diameter by 5 inches in length. This close-cut threaded fitting is used to connect sections of pipe in gas, steam, air, and water distribution systems. The extra heavy wall thickness provides greater pressure capacity and added durability compared to standard schedule fittings. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors typically specify XH nipples where elevated working pressures or increased mechanical strength are required.

This nipple is suited for commercial and industrial piping applications where standard wall fittings are not adequate. Common install scenarios include boiler rooms, process piping, compressed air lines, and gas distribution headers. The black steel construction makes it appropriate for gas service and non-potable water systems where corrosion protection is provided by the system design.

Key Features

• Extra heavy (XH) wall thickness for higher pressure applications
• Black steel construction provides solid mechanical strength
• 1-1/4 inch by 5 inch size suits a wide range of commercial piping runs
• Threaded ends for standard NPT connection
• Suitable for gas, steam, air, and non-potable water service

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded replacement or new-installation nipple for extra heavy black steel piping systems in commercial and industrial mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes including the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC). Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply a code-approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium. Inspect threads on both the nipple and mating fitting before assembly to ensure proper engagement and leak-free connection.
