Asc 1DXEXE.BMT Reducing Tee 1-1/2x3/4x3/4 in Fnpt 150lb

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 1DXEXE.BMT is a malleable iron pipe reducing tee rated for 150 lb service. It features female national pipe taper (FNPT) threads on all three outlets and reduces from a 1-1/2-inch run to 3/4-inch branch and outlet connections. The black finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for gas distribution, compressed air, and general-purpose piping systems. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this fitting wherever a threaded branch connection and a pipe size reduction are required at the same point in a run.

This reducing tee is suited for residential and light commercial applications including natural gas supply lines, propane distribution, compressed air headers, and water supply piping where a 150 lb malleable iron threaded fitting meets code requirements. The FNPT thread pattern accepts standard tapered male pipe threads for a leak-resistant mechanical seal when assembled with appropriate thread sealant or tape.

Key Features

• Three-outlet reducing configuration: 1-1/2 inches run x 3/4 inches branch x 3/4 inches outlet
• FNPT threads on all three ports for standard tapered male pipe thread engagement
• 150 lb pressure class malleable iron construction
• Black finish for corrosion resistance in gas and air service
• Domestically manufactured to support code-compliant installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style threaded fitting compatible with standard 1-1/2-inch and 3/4-inch NPT piping systems rated for 150 lb malleable iron fittings in gas, air, or general-purpose service.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes, IFGC, and ASME B16.3 standards for malleable iron threaded fittings. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any fitting. Apply an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, and tighten to hand-tight plus the number of turns specified by the sealant manufacturer. Do not over-torque malleable iron fittings, as the material is susceptible to cracking under excessive mechanical stress.
