Asc Engineered Solutions 8700150751 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700150751 is a welded steel galvanized pipe nipple used to connect threaded pipe sections in plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical piping systems. Sized at 3/4 inch nominal diameter and 5-1/2 inches in length, it is manufactured to Schedule 40 standard wall thickness. The hot-dipped galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for both indoor and outdoor installations. Lead content on wetted surfaces is controlled to no more than 0.25% weighted average, keeping the fitting compliant with low-lead requirements for potable water applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors are the primary installers of this fitting.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial piping systems where threaded steel pipe is specified. Common applications include water supply lines, gas distribution piping, hydronic heating systems, and general mechanical system connections. The galvanized finish makes it appropriate for installations subject to moisture exposure. It ships as a single piece and is sold individually.

Key Features

• Hot-dipped galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor environments
• Schedule 40 standard wall thickness for typical pressure service
• Meets ASTM A53 standards for welded steel pipe
• Low-lead compliant — no more than 0.25% weighted average lead content on wetted surfaces
• Nominal 3/4 inch diameter with 5-1/2 inch length for precise close-nipple and extension applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-service fitting compatible with 3/4 inch Schedule 40 threaded steel pipe systems using NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters. Shut off and depressurize the affected pipe section before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly; do not overtighten, as this can crack fittings or distort threads. Work must comply with applicable local plumbing codes and IFGC or IPC requirements depending on the service type.
