Sized at 1\/2 inch nominal diameter and 6 inches in length, it is manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness and meets ASTM A53 standards. The galvanized finish provides a durable protective layer suited for water supply, gas distribution, and general plumbing applications. Lead content on wetted surfaces is controlled to no more than 0.25% weighted average, keeping it compliant with low-lead requirements. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in both new construction and retrofit work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis nipple is used in residential and light commercial plumbing and mechanical systems where a short threaded close or run connection is needed. Typical applications include connecting valves, tees, elbows, and other threaded fittings in water supply lines, fire suppression headers, and general-purpose pipe runs. The hot-dipped galvanized coating makes it appropriate for outdoor or exposed installations where bare steel would corrode prematurely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHot-dipped galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet and exposed environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ASTM A53 standard for welded and seamless steel pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-lead compliant — no more than 0.25% weighted average lead content on wetted surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNominal 1\/2 inch diameter with 6 inch length for versatile run connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard Schedule 40 threaded galvanized steel pipe nipple compatible with 1\/2 inch NPT fittings, valves, and couplings used in residential and commercial plumbing and mechanical piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the supply line before making or breaking any threaded connections. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 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-Dipped Galvanized\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWall Schedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\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: 0.386 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: 8700149555\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51345059709234,"sku":"8700149555","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547565.jpg?v=1782048684","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700149555-galvanized-pipe-nipple","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
