Asc Engineered Solutions 831006804 Galvanized Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 831006804 is a galvanized steel close nipple measuring 1/4 inch by 5-1/2 inches. It is a threaded pipe fitting used to connect two female-threaded fittings, valves, or pipe sections in low-pressure piping systems. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance suited for water, gas, and general plumbing applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of nipple in both residential and light commercial systems where a short, rigid threaded connection is required.

This nipple is suitable for use in water supply lines, natural gas distribution piping, and general mechanical piping assemblies. Its 1/4 inch nominal pipe size makes it appropriate for branch lines, instrumentation connections, and small-bore service runs. It is commonly found in residential plumbing rough-in work, HVAC gas train assemblies, and commercial mechanical rooms wherever a short threaded galvanized fitting is needed.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for wet and outdoor service environments
• 1/4 inch NPT threads on both ends for standard threaded pipe connections
• 5-1/2 inch length suits close-proximity connection layouts
• Lightweight at 0.18 pounds, minimizing added load on small-bore assemblies
• Import-sourced fitting suitable for general trade applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4 inch NPT galvanized steel nipple for use with compatible threaded fittings, valves, and pipe in water, gas, 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) or International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where applicable. Shut off the water or gas supply and relieve system pressure before making any threaded connections. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten, as this can crack fittings or damage threads on downstream components.
