Asc Engineered Solutions 8700141057 Black Iron Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700141057 is a Schedule 40 black iron pipe nipple used in threaded pipe assemblies across residential and commercial plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical systems. Constructed from welded steel with a black coating to resist corrosion, this nipple measures 1 inch in diameter and 3.5 inches in length. It carries standard NPT threads on both ends for quick integration into threaded fittings, valves, and couplings. Manufactured to ASTM A53 standards, it is a reliable choice for gas lines, steam systems, and general fluid conveyance where black iron pipe is specified.

This nipple is suited for use in natural gas and propane distribution lines, steam and hydronic heating systems, fire suppression piping, and general industrial plumbing applications. It is a standard close- or short-pattern nipple commonly installed where short pipe extensions are needed between fittings or at equipment connections. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors typically keep Schedule 40 black iron nipples in common sizes on hand for rough-in and service work.

Key Features

• Welded steel construction meets ASTM A53 standards for pressure and dimensional integrity
• Black coating applied to bare steel to inhibit surface corrosion during storage and service
• Schedule 40 wall thickness rated for standard pressure service
• Standard NPT threads on both ends for compatibility with threaded fittings and valves
• 1 inch nominal diameter by 3.5 inches length for compact pipe extensions

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-stock fitting for threaded Schedule 40 black iron pipe systems using 1 inch NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Black iron pipe nipples are installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working under applicable codes including the IFGC and IPC. Shut off gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
