Cambridge Resources 30612x60 Black Steel Pipe Nipple

Product Description

The CAMBRIDGE RESOURCES 30612x60 is a black steel pipe nipple measuring 0.5 inches in diameter by 60 inches in length. It is a threaded, cut-length pipe fitting used to connect sections of steel piping in gas distribution, steam, and hydronic heating systems. Constructed from steel to ASTM A733 specifications, it is hydrostatically tested and rated for a maximum working pressure of 214 psi at 400 degrees F. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in both residential and light commercial applications where a durable, code-compliant threaded connection is required.

This nipple is suited for gas piping, steam lines, and hydronic heating distribution systems. The 60-inch length makes it useful in applications requiring a longer run between fittings without additional joints. Its black steel construction distinguishes it from galvanized pipe, making it appropriate for natural gas and propane service where galvanized fittings are typically not permitted by code. It is sold individually and threads directly into standard NPT fittings, valves, and manifolds.

Key Features

• Hydrostatically tested for pressure integrity before shipment
• Manufactured to ASTM A733 specifications for dimensional and material consistency
• Rated to 214 psi at 400 degrees F for demanding pressure and temperature service
• Black steel construction compatible with natural gas and propane piping systems
• 60-inch cut length reduces the need for additional couplings on longer runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard NPT threaded steel piping systems in residential and commercial gas, steam, and hydronic heating applications.

Installation Notes

Installation of black steel pipe nipples in gas service must comply with applicable codes including the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) and local amendments. Shut off the gas supply and verify zero pressure before breaking any existing connections. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or tape rated for gas service to all threaded joints. This fitting should be installed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter where required by local jurisdiction.
