Asc Engineered Solutions 8700141305 Black Iron Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700141305 is a Schedule 40 black iron pipe nipple used for joining sections of threaded pipe in gas, steam, and water distribution systems. Manufactured from welded steel with a black coating to resist corrosion, it measures 1 inch in diameter and 6 inches in length. Standard NPT threads on both ends allow for straightforward connection to fittings, valves, and other threaded pipe components. This nipple meets ASTM A53 standards, making it appropriate for use in commercial and residential piping installations handled by licensed plumbers and pipefitters.

This nipple is suited for a wide range of piping applications including natural gas lines, steam systems, air lines, and water supply runs. The 1 inch by 6 inch size fits common residential and light commercial configurations where a short, threaded extension between fittings is needed. It is sold individually and is a practical stock item for contractors maintaining inventory of standard pipe fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code or International Plumbing Code where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the system before beginning work. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly.
