Asc Engineered Solutions 831038401 Galvanized Nipple 2x5.5 in

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 831038401 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 2 inches by 5.5 inches. A nipple is a short length of pipe threaded on both ends, used to connect two fittings or extend a run within a piping system. This fitting is constructed from galvanized steel, which provides corrosion resistance suited for water, gas, and general mechanical piping applications. It is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on commercial and residential systems where a close or short extension between threaded components is required.

This nipple is appropriate for use in water supply lines, compressed air systems, gas distribution piping, and general industrial pipe assemblies where a 2-inch threaded connection is specified. The 5.5-inch body length makes it a standard close nipple for situations where a short, rigid extension between fittings is needed. It is imported and intended for professional trade use in both new construction and retrofit work.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for water, gas, and mechanical piping
• 2-inch by 5.5-inch sizing fits standard threaded pipe connections
• Threaded on both ends for direct connection between fittings or valves
• Compact nipple body suits tight-space installations where minimal extension is needed
• Import-grade fitting suitable for general trade and industrial applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard fitting for 2-inch threaded galvanized steel piping systems used in plumbing, gas, and mechanical installations.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable local plumbing codes and IFGC requirements where gas service is involved. Shut off the relevant water or gas supply and depressurize the line before disassembling any threaded connections. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the joint. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can damage the fitting or mating components.
