Asc Engineered Solutions 8700154209 Galvanized Nipple 1.5x4 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700154209 is a welded steel galvanized pipe nipple designed for use in standard plumbing, mechanical, and industrial piping systems. Measuring 1-1/2 inches in diameter and 4 inches in length, this nipple is manufactured to Schedule 40 wall thickness and finished with a hot-dipped galvanized coating that meets ASTM A53 standards. The galvanized surface provides corrosion resistance for both above-ground and buried installations. Lead content on wetted surfaces is controlled to no more than 0.25 percent weighted average, making it suitable for potable water applications where lead compliance is required.

This nipple is used in residential and commercial plumbing, fire protection, and mechanical piping systems wherever a short threaded connection is needed between fittings, valves, or equipment. Schedule 40 wall thickness makes it appropriate for standard-pressure service in water supply and distribution lines. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers in both new construction and retrofit service work.

Key Features

• Hot-dipped galvanized finish meets ASTM A53 standards for corrosion resistance
• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-pressure plumbing service
• 1-1/2 inch diameter by 4 inch length for close-coupled connections
• Lead content limited to 0.25 percent or less on wetted surfaces for potable water compliance
• Welded steel construction for consistent wall integrity

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-service nipple for Schedule 40 galvanized threaded piping systems using 1-1/2 inch NPT fittings and valves.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with the International Plumbing Code and applicable local codes. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before removing or installing any threaded pipe component. Apply a listed thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before making up the joint. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.
