Anvil International Inc 8700122503 Galvanized Reducing Tee

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700122503 is a galvanized reducing tee designed for threaded pipe systems requiring a branch reduction. The fitting connects a 3/4-inch run on both the through-ports and steps down to a 1/2-inch branch outlet. The galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance suited to water supply, gas distribution, and general plumbing applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in residential and light commercial systems where a smaller branch line tees off a main run.

This reducing tee is used in threaded pipe assemblies where flow must be divided or redirected with a change in pipe size at the branch. Common applications include domestic water distribution, fire protection branch lines, compressed air systems, and low-pressure gas piping. The 3/4-inch by 3/4-inch by 1/2-inch configuration is a standard reduction frequently encountered in residential plumbing rough-in and mechanical room installations. This fitting ships in quantities of 20 units per package, making it practical for contractors working on multi-unit or phased projects.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in water and general-service piping
• 3/4 inches x 3/4 inches x 1/2 inches reducing configuration for branch-line size transitions
• Threaded end connections compatible with standard NPT pipe thread systems
• Packaged 20 units per carton for contractor-quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-service fitting for threaded galvanized steel pipe systems using NPT connections in residential and light commercial plumbing and mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system fully before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly and tighten to hand-tight plus the appropriate number of turns for the pipe size per standard practice. Do not over-torque threaded galvanized fittings, as this can crack the fitting or damage threads.
