A close nipple has minimal exposed thread between its two male ends, allowing fittings to be joined as tightly as possible with virtually no gap. The overall length is approximately 2-5\/8 inches. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this component when a standard hex nipple would leave too much exposed pipe between adjacent fittings. It weighs 0.99 pounds per unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis close nipple is suited for residential and commercial plumbing systems, hydronic heating lines, gas distribution piping, and general mechanical installations where a tight threaded connection is required. The galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance in water supply and low-pressure gas service environments. It is a non-domestic import product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClose pattern minimizes exposed thread for tight back-to-back fitting connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGalvanized steel construction resists corrosion in water and low-pressure gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch pipe size with approximately 2-5\/8-inch overall body length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMale threaded on both ends for standard NPT assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor fits restricted spaces where longer nipples will not clear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded fitting replacement for 3-inch galvanized steel pipe assemblies in residential and commercial plumbing and mechanical systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC and IFGC codes. Shut off water supply or gas service and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded nipple. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, and tighten using pipe wrenches sized for 3-inch pipe. Do not over-tighten, as galvanized threads can crack if excessive force is applied.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches x Close (2-5\/8 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.99 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: 831045208\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233497022770,"sku":"0831045208","price":22.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307628601.jpg?v=1780101426","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-831045208-galvanized-nipple-3-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
