It is manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness and meets ASTM A53 standards for steel pipe. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for use in wet and exposed environments. Lead content on wetted surfaces is controlled to no more than 0.25% weighted average, making it suitable for potable water systems where low-lead compliance is required. Plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting in both new construction and repair work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is used in residential and light commercial plumbing, heating, and gas distribution systems where Schedule 40 galvanized steel pipe is specified. Typical applications include water supply lines, steam and hydronic heating systems, and threaded pipe assemblies requiring a short close or extension nipple. The 1\/2 inch by 2-1\/2 inch dimension fits standard NPT-threaded fittings and valves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHot-dip galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ASTM A53 standard for welded steel pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-lead wetted surface compliance — no more than 0.25% weighted average lead content\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNPT-threaded ends for connection to standard fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard Schedule 40 NPT-threaded galvanized steel nipple compatible with 1\/2 inch threaded pipe fittings, couplings, valves, and other Schedule 40 galvanized pipe components in residential and commercial piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or applicable local codes. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack cast fittings. Shut off water or gas supply and depressurize the system before making any modifications to an existing piping assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches\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: Hot-Dip Galvanized\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A53\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Lead Content (Wetted Surface)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25% weighted average\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.139 pounds\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: 8700149209\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51345249665330,"sku":"8700149209","price":18.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547524.jpg?v=1782052902","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700149209-galvanized-pipe-nipple","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
