Asc Engineered Solutions 831015409 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 831015409 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple used to connect threaded pipe sections in plumbing, gas, and industrial piping systems. Measuring 1/2 inch in diameter by 3-1/2 inches in length, this close-to-short nipple provides a rigid, corrosion-resistant threaded coupling between fittings, valves, and pipe runs. The hot-dip galvanized finish helps resist rust and oxidation in moderate-moisture environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this nipple as a standard component in low-pressure water, air, and gas distribution systems where threaded steel fittings are specified.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications including water supply lines, compressed air systems, and threaded gas piping where a short extension or offset between fittings is required. It accepts standard NPT threads and is compatible with other 1/2 inch threaded fittings, valves, and couplings. This is an import product and is noted as non-domestic in origin.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for moisture-exposed installations
• 1/2 inch NPT thread size fits standard half-inch threaded pipe systems
• 3-1/2 inch length suits close-quarter offsets and short extensions between fittings
• Rigid steel body handles moderate-pressure water, air, and gas service
• Threaded both ends for quick assembly with standard NPT fittings

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-thread replacement nipple for 1/2 inch NPT threaded piping systems in plumbing, gas, and mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten, as this can crack fittings or distort thread engagement.
