Asc 2X1B.BMT Reducing Pipe Tee 2x2x1-1/4 in Fnpt 150 Lb

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 2X1B.BMT is a malleable iron reducing tee designed for threaded pipe assemblies in gas, air, and fluid distribution systems. It features a 2 x 2 x 1-1/4 inch configuration with female National Pipe Taper (FNPT) threads on all three outlets, allowing a branch reduction from a 2-inch run to a 1-1/4-inch takeoff. Rated at 150 lb, this fitting handles standard working pressures common to commercial and industrial piping installations. The black finish is standard for malleable iron fittings used in gas piping and general mechanical systems. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC mechanics are the primary installers.

This reducing tee is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications where a directional branch with a size reduction is required. Common install scenarios include natural gas distribution headers, compressed air lines, and water piping systems where branch flow must be stepped down from a 2-inch main to a 1-1/4-inch lateral. The domestically manufactured construction meets expectations for fittings used in code-inspected mechanical rooms and utility spaces.

Key Features

• Reducing configuration: 2 x 2 x 1-1/4 inches for inline run with smaller branch takeoff
• FNPT threads on all three ports for standard threaded pipe connections
• 150 lb pressure rating suitable for gas, air, and water service
• Malleable iron construction provides strength and impact resistance over cast iron
• Black finish standard for gas piping and general mechanical use
• Domestic manufacture for projects requiring USA-made fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with standard 2-inch and 1-1/4-inch NPT threaded pipe in 150 lb malleable iron piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the line before disassembly or fitting installation. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as malleable iron threads can crack under excessive force.
