Manufactured from welded steel with a black coating to inhibit corrosion, this nipple measures 1-1\/2 inches in diameter and 5 inches in length. It conforms to Schedule 40 wall thickness and carries standard NPT pipe threads on both ends. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians use this type of fitting wherever a short threaded section is needed to connect valves, tees, elbows, or other threaded components in a low-pressure piping assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is well-suited for residential and light commercial gas piping, steam systems, water distribution, and hydronic heating installations. Its Schedule 40 wall thickness meets the demands of standard working pressures in these systems. The black iron finish is the industry standard for gas supply lines. It is sold individually and installs with standard pipe wrenches and thread sealant or PTFE tape approved for the intended service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelded steel construction meets ASTM A53 standards for structural and pressure pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack coating provides corrosion resistance and meets requirements for gas line service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for standard working pressures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard NPT threads on both ends for compatibility with threaded fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-1\/2 inch nominal diameter, 5 inch length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for threaded Schedule 40 black iron piping systems using 1-1\/2 inch nominal pipe connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC), and ASME B31 piping standards. Shut off gas supply or isolate the water system completely before cutting into any existing line. Apply thread sealant compound or PTFE tape rated for the intended service to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections; use a backup wrench on adjacent fittings to prevent stress on upstream joints.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A53\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.92 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 8700143608\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344717054258,"sku":"8700143608","price":15.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547495.jpg?v=1782041409","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700143608-black-iron-nipple","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
