Asc Engineered Solutions 831001805 Galvanized Nipple 1/8x5

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 831001805 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1/8 inch by 5 inches. Pipe nipples are short threaded sections used to connect two fittings, valves, or other threaded components in a piping system. This nipple is galvanized to resist corrosion in wet or humid environments, making it suitable for water supply, gas distribution, and general-purpose plumbing applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install this type of fitting in both residential and light commercial systems. At 0.09 pounds, it is a lightweight component that handles routine threaded assembly tasks efficiently.

This nipple is appropriate for low-pressure plumbing, water supply, and general pipe assembly work where a 1/8-inch threaded connection is required. The 5-inch length makes it useful when a close nipple or hex nipple is too short and a longer reach between fittings is needed. It is commonly used in boiler trim, gas manifolds, water distribution headers, and similar applications where compact galvanized fittings are specified.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and humid service conditions
• 1/8 inch nominal pipe size with 5-inch overall length for extended reach connections
• Threaded ends allow direct connection to standard NPT fittings, valves, and couplings
• Lightweight at 0.09 pounds for easy handling during installation
• Import product suitable for non-critical general-purpose piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded replacement or new-installation fitting for use with 1/8-inch threaded pipe connections in residential and light commercial plumbing and gas piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not over-tighten, as excessive torque can crack fittings or damage threads.
