Manufactured from welded steel with a black coating applied to resist corrosion, this nipple measures 1\/4 inch in diameter and 2 inches in length. It is threaded to Schedule 40 standard pipe thread (NPT) specifications, making it a direct-fit component for threaded iron pipe assemblies. Plumbers, pipefitters, and gas line technicians use this nipple to connect fittings, valves, and other threaded components in low-pressure distribution systems. The part meets ASTM A53 standards for steel pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications including natural gas distribution, propane lines, steam systems, and water supply lines. It is commonly installed in close-nipple or short-run configurations between two threaded fittings. The small diameter makes it a frequent component in gas appliance connections, manifold assemblies, and utility piping rough-ins where a short threaded steel section is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack steel coating resists corrosion during storage and service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for standard-duty piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard NPT threading for compatibility with threaded iron pipe fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASTM A53 welded steel pipe standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch nominal diameter x 2 inch length for short-run connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-stock threaded nipple for Schedule 40 black iron pipe systems using 1\/4 inch NPT fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or gas fitters depending on the application and local code requirements. Shut off the gas supply or isolate the water system before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before threading the nipple into fittings. Hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench to achieve a leak-free connection without over-stressing the threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Welded Steel, Black Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A53\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.069 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUOM\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\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: 8700136859\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346064113970,"sku":"8700136859","price":20.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547444.jpg?v=1782070237","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700136859-black-iron-nipple","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
