Asc Engineered Solutions 831016407 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 831016407 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1/2 inch by 6 inches. A pipe nipple is a short length of externally threaded pipe used to connect two fittings, valves, or other threaded components in a piping system. This nipple is galvanized to resist corrosion in wet or outdoor environments. It is a standard plumbing and mechanical fitting installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors in both residential and light commercial applications. The 0.40-pound unit weight makes it easy to handle in tight spaces.

This nipple is suited for use in water supply, gas distribution, compressed air, and general mechanical piping systems where a 1/2-inch threaded connection is required. Its 6-inch length provides enough extension to clear structural members or bridging fittings in typical rough-in and service scenarios. It is an import product and is commonly stocked as a standard replacement or new-installation fitting on service trucks and in trade supply rooms.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction resists rust and corrosion in wet or outdoor environments
• 1/2-inch nominal pipe size fits standard 1/2-inch threaded fittings, valves, and couplings
• 6-inch length suits bridging, offset, and standard rough-in applications
• External NPT threads on both ends for straightforward installation
• Lightweight at 0.40 pounds for easy one-handed positioning during install

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or new-installation fitting for 1/2-inch threaded pipe systems in residential and light commercial plumbing, gas, and mechanical piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable local plumbing codes and IFGC requirements where gas service is involved. Shut off water or gas supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the joint. Do not over-tighten threaded connections in galvanized fittings, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.
