Asc Engineered Solutions 831010004 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 831010004 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple used to connect threaded pipe sections in plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical piping systems. Measuring 3/8 inch in diameter and 2 inches in length, this close-coupled fitting provides a short, rigid threaded connection between two female-threaded fittings or valves. The galvanized steel construction offers corrosion resistance suited to water supply, gas distribution, and general mechanical applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of nipple when assembling or repairing threaded pipe systems that require a compact, durable transition piece.

This nipple is appropriate for residential and light commercial piping systems where 3/8-inch threaded connections are required. Typical applications include water supply lines, gas branch lines, and HVAC hydronic or steam distribution piping. The 2-inch length makes it suitable for close-clearance installations where a longer nipple would not fit but a close nipple would leave insufficient thread engagement.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in water and gas service
• 3/8-inch diameter by 2-inch length for compact threaded connections
• Standard NPT threading for compatibility with common threaded fittings and valves
• Lightweight at 0.08 pounds per unit, minimizing load on small-diameter pipe assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or stock fitting for 3/8-inch NPT threaded piping systems in residential and commercial plumbing and mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC code requirements for the intended service. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can crack fittings or strip threads on galvanized steel nipples.
