Asc Engineered Solutions 831005806 Galvanized Nipple 1/4x3in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 831005806 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1/4 inch x 3 inches. Pipe nipples are short threaded pipe sections used to connect two female-threaded fittings in a run of pipe. This nipple is manufactured from galvanized steel, providing corrosion resistance in moisture-prone environments. It is a standard fitting used in plumbing, gas distribution, HVAC piping, and general mechanical systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install this type of fitting as part of larger pipe assemblies in both residential and light commercial applications.

This nipple is suited for use in low-pressure piping systems where a short, threaded close or running nipple is required. Common applications include domestic water supply lines, gas piping branch connections, steam and condensate systems, and general industrial plumbing tie-ins. The 1/4 inch thread size makes it appropriate for smaller-diameter branch lines and instrument connections. Import-sourced construction makes it a cost-effective choice for high-volume or non-critical installations.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments
• 1/4 inch x 3 inch dimensions for compact, small-diameter connections
• Threaded ends for standard NPT-compatible fitting assembly
• Lightweight at 0.09 pounds per unit, suitable for high-volume material staging
• Import-sourced fitting appropriate for non-critical or general-purpose piping runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with standard 1/4 inch NPT female-threaded pipe fittings in plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the affected pipe section before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections in galvanized steel fittings, as this can crack female fittings or distort threads.
