A close nipple is the shortest standard nipple available, consisting of two sets of external male threads meeting at the center with no unthreaded barrel between them. This configuration allows two female-threaded fittings to be joined with minimal gap between them. Weighing 0.14 pounds, it is sized for 1-inch pipe and is used in a range of piping assemblies across plumbing and mechanical systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis close nipple is suited for use in residential and light commercial piping systems where a tight, compact connection between two threaded fittings or valves is required. The galvanized steel construction makes it appropriate for water supply, gas distribution, and general mechanical piping applications where corrosion resistance and thread durability are priorities. It is a standard import-grade fitting commonly stocked for service and retrofit work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClose configuration — no unthreaded center section, enabling back-to-back fitting connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGalvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for water and mechanical piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-inch pipe size with standard male NPT threads on both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight at 0.14 pounds for easy handling and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImport-grade fitting suitable for general commercial and residential piping work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 1-inch close nipple replacement or new-installation fitting for use with NPT-threaded pipe fittings, valves, and couplings in water supply, gas, and general mechanical piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Apply appropriate thread sealant or pipe tape to the male threads before assembly, and hand-tighten before finishing with a pipe wrench. Ensure the upstream supply line is shut off and pressure is relieved before installing or replacing any threaded fitting. Follow applicable local plumbing codes and IFGC requirements when used in gas piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch x Close\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.14 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Import\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASC Engineered Solutions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 831023601\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233257292082,"sku":"0831023601","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307628520.jpg?v=1780095594","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-831023601-1-in-close-galvanized-nipple","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
