Asc Engineered Solutions 8700139754 Black Iron Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700139754 is a Schedule 40 black iron pipe nipple designed for use in standard plumbing and piping systems. Manufactured from welded steel with a black coating to resist corrosion, this nipple measures 0.75 inches in diameter and 2.5 inches in length. It features standard NPT pipe threads on both ends for straightforward connection to fittings, valves, and other threaded pipe components. The part meets ASTM A53 standards for welded steel pipe. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of nipple in gas, water, and general-purpose piping assemblies across residential and commercial applications.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping installations where a short threaded connection is needed between fittings or at equipment connections. Common applications include natural gas supply lines, steam systems, compressed air lines, and water distribution piping where Schedule 40 wall thickness is specified. The black iron finish is standard for gas piping installations per applicable code requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with the International Plumbing Code or International Fuel Gas Code as applicable.
