How to secure black iron at the wall penetration

[North Jersey]

How should I secure 1" black iron at the wall (rim joist) penetration? Can I use a floor flange? I'll be hooking up to CSST on the inside.

So, I bought one of these guys: http://www.lowes.com/pd_30256-185-311+LF-112_0_?productId=3223557&Ntt=floor+flange&Ntk=i_products&pl=1&currentURL=/pl__0__s?newSearch=true$Ntt=floor flange

It seems too shallow, i.e., not enough threads, to connect two pipe nipples. Forgive my ignorance, but I don't know how to use this thing. Any ideas?

I'm not sure I fully understand what you are trying to do. A floor flange such as you have is to anchor a pipe that is being used as a leg to the floor. You could use 2 flanges, and make a clothes rod wall to wall. A floor flange is not used to connect two pieces of pipe together. They really are not plumbing parts.

If its just a wood joist then drill a hole and put the pipe through, use pipe stays to support the pipe on the side of the wall.

I sort of suspected as much when I looked at the short length of threads. I have to secure this pipe to the rim (band) joist because I'll have only about 18" of iron at the exterior wall penetration (the building inspector wanted black iron through the wall). The propane company will hook up soft copper to the iron, and I will hook up CSST on the inside. I want to avoid having the iron pull through the wall, shift, or rotate. The band joist is the only place where the propane pipe will pass through lumber.

I'm not sure I have a perpendicular surface for the pipe stay. What about a split ring hanger like this one?:

I'm not sure how much friction I'll have between the clamp and the pipe, but I guess I could wrap a piece of hanger tape around the pipe to tighten things up if necessary. What do you think?

The (few) ring hangers I've used, clamp to the pipe quite tight, so nothing additional is required. I supposed you could wrap it with plastic tape if you needed it tighter, but I don't think you'll need to.

How about a stubout? Getting the right size one you'll probably need to go to a supply house. You also might want to paint the exposed part.

Are are some different ideas.

Hosebib, I'm not sure any of those would work my application.

I liked the stub-out idea, but either the guy at the counter at Ferguson's didn't understand what I was looking for or they don't carry them. Tracpipe makes a 1" brass flange with an autoflare fitting. I bought the Tracpipe flange, but I think it's going back, because $38 is just a little too much. I found the same thing elsewhere for $18.99, shipped.
