Asc Engineered Solutions 830532040 Black Steel Xh Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830532040 is a black steel extra heavy (XH) pipe nipple sized at 1-1/2 inches by 2 inches. This close-tolerance threaded nipple provides a rigid, high-strength connection between pipe sections in gas, steam, and industrial piping systems. The extra heavy wall construction delivers greater pressure-bearing capacity than standard weight nipples, making it suitable for demanding service conditions. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors typically install this fitting in commercial and industrial applications where pipe schedule and pressure ratings require heavier wall thickness.

This black steel XH nipple is used in residential and commercial gas distribution lines, steam systems, and industrial fluid piping. It is well-suited for environments where corrosion from black iron oxide coating is acceptable and where galvanized or stainless materials are not required. The 1-1/2 inch by 2 inch sizing fits standard threaded pipe assemblies and is commonly found in mechanical rooms, boiler rooms, and process piping installations.

Key Features

• Extra heavy (XH) wall construction for increased pressure capacity over standard weight nipples
• Black steel material provides strength and durability in gas and steam service
• 1-1/2 inch by 2 inch dimensions for direct drop-in replacement in compatible threaded assemblies
• Threaded ends for connection to standard pipe fittings and couplings
• Lightweight at 0.50 pounds for easy handling during installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard threaded black steel pipe assemblies in 1-1/2 inch nominal pipe size configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before threading the nipple into fittings. Do not overtighten; use a pipe wrench with proper backing to avoid stressing adjacent fittings.
