Asc Engineered Solutions 8700151759 Galvanized Nipple 1x3.5 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700151759 is a Schedule 40 welded steel pipe nipple with a hot-dipped galvanized finish. It measures 1 inch in diameter by 3.5 inches in length and is used to create threaded connections in water supply, drainage, and general plumbing piping systems. The galvanizing process provides corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and outdoor installations. Lead content on wetted surfaces is controlled to no more than 0.25% weighted average, meeting compliance requirements for potable water applications. Plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting.

This nipple is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where Schedule 40 steel pipe is specified. Typical applications include water supply lines, gas distribution piping, and general-purpose threaded pipe assemblies. The 1-inch diameter size is a common size in both new construction and retrofit work. It conforms to ASTM A53 standards, making it appropriate for pressure-rated piping systems that call for standard-weight galvanized steel pipe.

Key Features

• Hot-dipped galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor environments
• Schedule 40 wall thickness per standard pipe specifications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard supply fitting compatible with 1-inch Schedule 40 threaded steel pipe systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the water or gas supply before making or breaking any threaded connections. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as this can damage the fitting or adjacent pipe threads.
