It meets ASTM A53 standards and is manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness, making it suitable for a wide range of piping installations where corrosion resistance and structural integrity are required. The galvanizing process provides durable zinc coating on the exterior, and the nipple is manufactured to contain no more than 0.25 percent weighted average lead content on wetted surfaces, supporting compliance with lead-free requirements in plumbing applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is commonly used in residential and light commercial piping systems for water supply, gas distribution, and general industrial service lines. Its Schedule 40 wall thickness suits standard-pressure service applications. The 1\/2 inch by 5 inch configuration works well as a close extension between threaded fittings, valves, and equipment connections where a short run of threaded pipe is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHot-dip galvanized finish meets ASTM A53 standards for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch nominal diameter by 5 inch length for short-run threaded connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWelded steel construction for consistent dimensional integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufactured with no more than 0.25 percent weighted average lead content on wetted surfaces\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 residential and commercial threaded pipe systems using 1\/2 inch Schedule 40 galvanized steel pipe and fittings.\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 plumbing codes and IFGC requirements where gas service applies. Shut off water or gas supply and depressurize the line before threading or replacing any nipple. Use appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium on all threaded connections. Do not over-tighten threaded joints, 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\u003eNominal Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\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: Hot-Dip Galvanized\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 Surfaces)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 percent weighted average\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.308 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\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: 8700149456\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344105799986,"sku":"8700149456","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547529.jpg?v=1782029438","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700149456-galvanized-nipple","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
