Asc Engineered Solutions 831017207 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 831017207 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple used to connect or extend threaded pipe runs in plumbing, HVAC hydronic, and mechanical piping systems. Sized at 0.5 inches by 8 inches, it provides a short, rigid threaded section between fittings, valves, or equipment connections. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for water supply, gas distribution, and general mechanical applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple as a standard component in both new construction and retrofit work.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping installations where a half-inch threaded connection with an 8-inch length is required. Common applications include boiler and hydronic heating piping, water supply rough-in, compressed air distribution, and gas piping where local codes permit galvanized steel. It threads directly into standard NPT fittings, valves, unions, and tees without modification.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for wet and humid environments
• 0.5-inch by 8-inch dimensions suit a wide range of standard piping layouts
• NPT threads on both ends allow direct connection to standard fittings and valves
• Compact weight of 0.54 pounds makes handling and installation straightforward

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded galvanized steel pipe nipple compatible with half-inch threaded pipe fittings, valves, and couplings used in plumbing, hydronic, and mechanical piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off the water supply or gas service and depressurize the line before threading any fitting. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
