galvanized piping is acceptable but not necessary. all steel piping must be wrapped when entering ground at least 6" (a foot is better) bushings are not allowed unless properly peened so its better to just use bell reducers. and finally be sure to size your pipe according to the BTU requirement of the appliance being serviced

Is galvanized piping ferrous?
Galvanized piping is typically made of steel and then coated with a layer of zinc to prevent corrosion. Steel is a ferrous metal, meaning it contains iron. Therefore, galvanized piping is considered a ferrous material due to its steel composition.
Should galvanized gas pipe lines be used in stead of black steel pipe for under a raised house on pilings you have one plumber saying to use galvanized and the other black pipe?

Is it possible to tell if a painted pipe fitting is black steel or galvanized steel?
without touching it? no what you will have to do is sand or scrape the pipe then you will be able to tell the difference. if its a dull metal then its black iron but if it shines then it would be galvanized.
What is ferrous piping?
Ferrous piping refers to piping made from iron or steel, which are both ferrous metals. These types of piping are commonly used in industrial and commercial applications due to their strength and durability. However, they are susceptible to corrosion, so appropriate protective measures such as coatings or cathodic protection may be necessary.
Can you mix Galvanized and black steel?
Yes, you can mix galvanized and black steel, but it’s important to consider potential issues like corrosion. Galvanized steel is coated with zinc to prevent rust, while black steel lacks this coating and can corrode when exposed to moisture. If mixed, ensure proper sealing and protection of the black steel to prevent rusting, especially in environments with high humidity or moisture. Additionally, consult local building codes and standards for compatibility and safety.

What are the differences between Galvanized pipe and black steel pipes?
Answer These are different descriptions for a part. Tubular Steel describes the shape. Steel can be ordered in different sizes and shapes and material properties. Tubular Steel is one type of shape and the process for making the tube will cause the properties for that steel to be slightly different. Galvanized Steel describes a type of finish that protects the steel from corrosion. This process alters the surface of the steel that keeps it protected and thus can be used for construction where it is exposed to the elements. I'm sure you can order a steel tube that has a galvanized finish. Many chain-link fences are made from galvanized steel, including the round posts. Custermen
