Asc Engineered Solutions 8700152807 Galvanized Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700152807 is a welded steel pipe nipple with a hot-dipped galvanized finish, sized at 1-1/4 inches by 2 inches. It is manufactured to Schedule 40 standard wall thickness, making it suitable for a wide range of plumbing, mechanical, and industrial piping systems. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for both above-ground and typical wet-service installations. This nipple meets ASTM A53 standards and is manufactured with no more than 0.25% weighted average lead content on wetted surfaces, supporting compliance with lead-free installation requirements. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of threaded pipe assemblies in commercial and residential systems.

This nipple is used in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, fire protection piping, and general mechanical installations where a short threaded galvanized steel connection is required. Its Schedule 40 wall thickness suits standard service pressure ratings. The 2-inch length makes it appropriate for close-coupled connections, risers, and branch connections where minimal spacing is needed between fittings or equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free joint. Hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench for final engagement, taking care not to overtighten and crack fittings. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded pipe components.
