Asc Engineered Solutions 8700152302 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 8700152302 is a welded steel galvanized pipe nipple measuring 1 inch in diameter and 12 inches in length. It is manufactured from Schedule 40 standard pipe and hot-dip galvanized to provide corrosion resistance in demanding plumbing and piping applications. The nipple meets ASTM A53 standards and is manufactured to contain no more than 0.25% weighted average lead content on wetted surfaces, making it suitable for potable water and general-purpose pipe systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as a short-run connector between threaded pipe sections.

This nipple is used in residential and commercial plumbing, fire protection, and industrial piping systems where a threaded galvanized steel connection is required. The 1-inch diameter and 12-inch length make it a common choice for water supply lines, gas distribution runs, and mechanical room piping. It is sold individually and is appropriate for use wherever Schedule 40 galvanized steel threaded fittings are specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded pipe fittings. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can damage fittings or adjacent components.
