Asc Engineered Solutions 831029608 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 831029608 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 1-1/4 inches by 5 inches. A pipe nipple is a short length of threaded pipe used to connect two fittings, valves, or other threaded components in a piping system. This nipple is constructed from galvanized steel, providing corrosion resistance suited to water supply, gas distribution, and general mechanical piping applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting as part of threaded pipe assemblies in both new construction and retrofit work.

This pipe nipple is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, and general industrial piping where a 1-1/4-inch threaded connection is required. The 5-inch length makes it suitable for close-quarter runs where a longer pipe section is not needed. It is compatible with standard NPT-threaded fittings, valves, and couplings of the same nominal size.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for wet and mechanical piping environments
• 1-1/4-inch nominal pipe size fits standard NPT-threaded fittings and valves
• 5-inch overall length suits close-quarter and short-run piping configurations
• Threaded ends allow tool-based assembly without welding or soldering

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with 1-1/4-inch NPT-threaded pipe fittings, couplings, unions, and valves used in water, gas, and mechanical piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters using pipe wrenches and appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape applied to the male threads. Shut off and depressurize the affected line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Follow applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC for thread engagement, support spacing, and material suitability in the specific service application. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.
