Asc Engineered Solutions 8700141107 Black Iron Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700141107 is a Schedule 40 black iron pipe nipple used in threaded piping systems across plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical applications. Manufactured from welded steel with a black coating to resist corrosion, this nipple measures 1 inch in diameter and 4 inches in length with standard NPT threads on both ends. It meets ASTM A53 standards for steel pipe, making it suitable for pressure and general-service piping work. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of threaded black iron assemblies in residential and light commercial systems.

This nipple is a common component in natural gas supply lines, steam systems, and water distribution piping where threaded black iron is specified. The 1-inch by 4-inch size fits standard close-nipple and cut-length applications. It is sold individually and is appropriate wherever Schedule 40 threaded steel fittings are called out on a job.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 wall thickness rated for standard-service pressure applications
• Black-coated welded steel construction resists corrosion during storage and service
• Meets ASTM A53 standards for steel pipe manufacturing
• Standard NPT threads on both ends for compatibility with threaded fittings and valves

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Schedule 40 black iron threaded nipple for use with 1-inch NPT fittings, valves, and couplings in threaded piping assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable code requirements such as the International Fuel Gas Code or International Plumbing Code. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service before making up threaded connections. Ensure the piping system is fully depressurized and, for gas applications, the supply is shut off and the line is purged before disturbing any existing connections. Inspect threads for damage before installation and do not over-torque connections on threaded black iron fittings.
