Asc Engineered Solutions 831038203 Galvanized Pipe Nipple 2x5 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 831038203 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 2 inches by 5 inches. A pipe nipple is a short length of threaded pipe used to connect two fittings, valves, or equipment ports in a piping system. The galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for water supply, gas distribution, and general industrial piping applications. This nipple is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors working on both new construction and retrofit projects.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and mechanical systems where a 2-inch threaded connection with a 5-inch overall length is required. It is commonly used in water supply lines, heating system piping, and similar fluid-handling applications where galvanized steel fittings are specified or preferred for corrosion resistance in exposed or semi-exposed environments.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and humid environments
• 2-inch nominal pipe size with 5-inch overall length for precise fitment
• Threaded ends for standard pipe fitting connections
• Suitable for water supply, heating, and general mechanical piping systems

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-thread galvanized steel pipe nipple compatible with 2-inch NPT fittings, valves, and equipment connections in residential and commercial mechanical piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off and depressurize the water or fluid supply before removing or installing any pipe nipple. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free connection. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can damage fittings or crack valves.
