It is manufactured to Schedule 40 standard pipe dimensions and features a hot-dipped galvanized finish that meets ASTM A53 standards. This nipple is used to connect threaded pipe sections in water, gas, and general plumbing distribution systems. The lead content on wetted surfaces is controlled to no more than 0.25% weighted average, making it suitable for use in potable water applications where low-lead compliance is required. Plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting in both residential and commercial settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis galvanized nipple is well-suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, fire protection, and mechanical systems where threaded steel pipe connections are specified. Its short close-nipple length of 3 inches makes it a practical choice for tight-clearance connections and riser assemblies. The hot-dipped galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for use in wet or outdoor-adjacent environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHot-dipped galvanized finish meets ASTM A53 standards for corrosion protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 standard pipe wall thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow-lead compliant — wetted surface lead content does not exceed 0.25% weighted average\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWelded steel construction for strength and durability in pressurized systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch NPT threaded ends for standard pipe assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard service fitting for threaded Schedule 40 steel pipe systems using 1\/4 inch NPT connections in plumbing, mechanical, and gas distribution applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the supply line before making any threaded connections. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Welded Steel, Hot-Dipped Galvanized\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A53\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Content (Wetted Surfaces)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25% weighted average maximum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.103 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 8700147708\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344783147314,"sku":"8700147708","price":18.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547504.jpg?v=1782043534","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700147708-galvanized-pipe-nipple","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
