Constructed from welded steel with a black coating applied to resist corrosion, this nipple measures 0.5 inches in diameter and 2 inches in length. It ships with standard NPT pipe threads on both ends, ready for direct installation into fittings, valves, or other threaded components. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers, though gas piping applications require a qualified gas technician in most jurisdictions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is suited for residential and light commercial installations where a short, threaded steel connector is required between two pipe fittings or between a fitting and a valve. Typical applications include natural gas and propane supply lines, steam systems, air distribution, and water service where black iron pipe is specified. The 2-inch length makes it useful in close-coupled connections where space is limited and a longer nipple would not fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for standard-duty threaded pipe systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack coating applied over welded steel to resist surface corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard NPT threads on both ends for compatibility with threaded fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASTM A53 standards for welded steel pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.5 inch nominal diameter x 2 inch length for close-coupled connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for threaded Schedule 40 black iron pipe systems using 0.5-inch nominal pipe size fittings and valves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified gas technician, depending on the service application. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly, and hand-tighten before finishing with a pipe wrench. For gas service, follow all applicable local codes and IFGC requirements, and pressure-test the assembled system before returning it to service. Always shut off the supply valve and relieve system pressure before disassembling or replacing any threaded pipe component.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 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\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Welded Steel with Black Coating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.113 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A53\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\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: 8700138459\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346538398002,"sku":"8700138459","price":21.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547471.jpg?v=1782083134","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700138459-black-iron-nipple","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
