Extra heavy wall nipples are used where standard-weight fittings do not meet pressure or mechanical-strength requirements. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install these nipples as threaded connectors between pipe sections, valves, and fittings in demanding piping systems. The black steel construction makes this nipple suitable for gas, steam, and industrial fluid distribution where corrosion from a non-potable environment is controlled through system design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple fits into commercial and industrial piping applications where extra wall thickness is specified by the engineer or required by code. Typical installations include gas distribution headers, steam supply and return lines, and industrial process piping. It is also used in fire suppression systems and mechanical rooms where robust threaded connections are needed. This is an import product, sourced for applications where domestic certification is not a project requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtra heavy (XH) wall construction for increased pressure and mechanical strength over standard-weight nipples\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack steel material suitable for gas, steam, and non-potable fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-inch by 12-inch dimensions provide a fixed-length threaded connection for close-tolerance piping layouts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreaded ends allow direct makeup with standard NPT fittings, valves, and couplings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImport designation identifies this as a non-domestic product for projects without domestic-sourcing requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for extra heavy black steel threaded piping systems using 3-inch NPT connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC). Isolate and de-pressurize the system and shut off all upstream supply before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before making up the joint. Do not use this fitting as a substitute for a pressure-rated union or flange where the design requires future disassembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches x 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWall Weight Class\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extra Heavy (XH)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9.82 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Import\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 830545042\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233982382386,"sku":"0830545042","price":102.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307628443.jpg?v=1780113954","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-830545042-black-steel-xh-nipple","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
