Bmi Usa 10040 Black Steel Pipe 3 in 60 in

Product Description

The BMI USA 10040 is a ready-cut black steel pipe sized for venting and piping applications in residential and light commercial installations. Measuring 60 inches in length with a 3-inch diameter, this pipe ships in a finished black coating suitable for fuel gas venting, black iron gas line runs, and similar trade applications. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and gas line contractors are the primary installers. The steel construction delivers the structural rigidity and pressure tolerance required for code-compliant gas distribution and venting work. At 37.39 pounds, the pipe is sized for a single-person lift with proper handling technique.

This pipe is used in residential and light commercial gas piping systems where black iron or black steel pipe is specified. Typical applications include natural gas and propane supply lines, B-vent rough-in segments, and mechanical room piping runs. The ready-cut length of 60 inches reduces field cutting time on standard rough-in dimensions. It is commonly installed in utility rooms, crawl spaces, basements, and mechanical chases where a pre-cut 60-inch section fits the layout without additional modification.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install component for 3-inch black steel pipe systems in residential and light commercial gas piping and venting applications.

Installation Notes

Black steel pipe for gas service must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with local code and IFGC requirements. Shut off the gas supply and verify zero pressure at the line before cutting into any existing piping system. Use appropriate pipe-threading dies, pipe dope rated for gas service, or approved tape on all threaded connections. Do not use black steel pipe for water distribution or compressed air without verifying the system design with the engineer of record.
