Asc Engineered Solutions 831017603 Galvanized Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 831017603 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple designed for threaded pipe connections in plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical piping systems. Measuring 1/2 inch in diameter and 9 inches in length, this nipple provides a corrosion-resistant, rigid connection between threaded fittings, valves, and pipe sections. The hot-dip galvanized finish protects the steel from rust and oxidation in both wet and dry environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of close-tolerance nipple where a reliable, durable threaded joint is required in low-pressure gas, water, or steam distribution lines.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications including water supply lines, gas distribution, compressed air, and hydronic heating systems. The 1/2-inch size is one of the most common thread sizes encountered in building mechanical systems, making this a standard stocked replacement or extension fitting for service and retrofit work.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for wet and dry service environments
• 1/2 inch diameter with 9 inch length suits a wide range of pipe extension and connection tasks
• Threaded ends accept standard NPT fittings, valves, and couplings
• Rigid steel body handles mechanical stress and vibration in installed piping systems
• Lightweight at 0.61 pounds for easy single-hand installation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded galvanized steel nipple for use with 1/2 inch threaded pipe fittings, valves, and couplings in residential and commercial mechanical piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC code requirements for the intended service. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope rated for the specific service medium before assembly. Hand-tighten first, then use pipe wrenches to achieve a secure, leak-free joint without over-threading. Shut off supply pressure and depressurize the line before removing or replacing any threaded nipple in an existing system.
