Asc Engineered Solutions 831046206 Galvanized Nipple 3x5

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 831046206 is a galvanized steel pipe nipple sized at 3 inches by 5 inches. A pipe nipple is a short length of pipe threaded on both ends, used to connect two fittings, valves, or other threaded components in a piping system. This nipple features a galvanized steel construction that provides corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments. It is a standard close-tolerance fitting used by plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors in commercial and residential piping applications where a reliable threaded connection is required.

This nipple is suited for use in water supply, HVAC piping, industrial fluid conveyance, and general-purpose plumbing systems. The 3-inch by 5-inch dimension makes it appropriate for medium-bore piping runs where a short, rigid connection between threaded components is needed. It is commonly installed in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, and process piping layouts where galvanized fittings are specified for corrosion resistance.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and humid environments
• 3-inch nominal pipe size with a 5-inch overall length for a short rigid connection
• Threaded on both ends for direct connection to fittings, valves, or pipe couplings
• Import-sourced fitting suitable for general-purpose plumbing and mechanical piping
• Weighs 2.45 pounds, consistent with solid steel construction

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded pipe nipple for use in 3-inch NPT-threaded plumbing and mechanical piping systems where galvanized steel fittings are specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code. Shut off and depressurize the system before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or pipe-thread tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.
