Asc Engineered Solutions 831010418 Pipe Nipple 3/8x3.5in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 831010418 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 3/8 inch by 3-1/2 inches. Pipe nipples are short lengths of threaded pipe used to connect two fittings, valves, or other components in a piping system. This nipple features a zinc galvanized finish that provides corrosion resistance in moderate-duty applications. It is used in plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical piping work where a short threaded connection is needed between two points in a run.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications including water supply lines, gas distribution piping, and general mechanical systems. The 3/8 inch nominal pipe size fits standard NPT threaded fittings and valves of the same size. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians commonly use close and short nipples like this one when making up threaded pipe assemblies in tight spaces or panel connections.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for wet and moderate-exposure environments
• 3/8 inch nominal pipe size with NPT threads on both ends
• 3-1/2 inch length suits close-quarters connections in threaded piping assemblies
• Compatible with standard NPT fittings, unions, and valves
• Lightweight at 0.16 pounds per piece

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or stocking nipple for use with 3/8 inch NPT threaded fittings and valves in plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable local codes including the IPC and IFGC. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope rated for the service medium to all NPT threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads. Shut off and depressurize the line before making any connections or changes to an existing piping system.
