Asc 310054408 Black Malleable Iron Reducing Tee 3x2.5 in

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 310054408 is a black malleable iron reducing tee designed for threaded pipe systems in commercial and industrial plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping applications. This domestically manufactured fitting connects a 3-inch run pipe to a 2.5-inch branch outlet, making it a workhorse component wherever a main line must feed a reduced-diameter branch. The black coating provides corrosion resistance suitable for gas and non-potable water systems. At 6.09 pounds, this is a solid, full-weight fitting built to standard malleable iron specifications.

This reducing tee is suited for installation in above-grade gas piping, industrial process lines, fire suppression mains, and commercial plumbing rough-in where a 3-inch main must transition to a 2.5-inch branch. Its threaded configuration allows assembly without welding or specialized tooling, making it accessible to licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and gas fitters working in both new construction and retrofit projects. Domestic manufacture supports projects with domestic-content requirements.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction provides strength and thread integrity under mechanical stress
• 3-inch run by 2.5-inch branch reducing configuration for main-to-branch transitions
• Black coating suitable for gas and non-potable piping systems
• Domestically manufactured for projects with domestic-content compliance needs
• Threaded ends for standard NPT assembly without welding

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style threaded fitting replacement or new-installation component for 3-inch by 2.5-inch NPT black iron pipe systems in gas, plumbing, and mechanical piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or gas fitter in accordance with applicable codes including the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) as required by jurisdiction. Shut off the gas or water supply and depressurize the line completely before disassembling or threading any fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium to all male threads before assembly. Pressure-test the completed assembly per local code requirements before returning the system to service.
