Asc 390017408 Grooved Reducing Tee 4x2 Inch Ductile Iron

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 390017408 is a grooved painted reducing tee designed for use in grooved piping systems where a branch reduction is required. This Gruvlok fitting transitions a 4-inch main run down to a 2-inch branch outlet, allowing flow distribution or diversion without the need for threaded or flanged connections. Constructed from ductile iron and finished with a painted coating for corrosion resistance, this tee is built for industrial-grade mechanical piping assemblies. Licensed pipefitters and mechanical contractors are the primary installers of grooved fittings of this type.

This reducing tee is suited for commercial and industrial piping applications including HVAC hydronic systems, fire suppression distribution networks, and general mechanical piping where a grooved coupling system is already in place. The 4-inch by 2-inch configuration makes it a practical choice for branch take-offs in medium to large diameter pipe runs. It is compatible with standard grooved pipe and coupling components within the Gruvlok product line.

Key Features

• Ductile iron construction provides high tensile strength and impact resistance for demanding piping applications
• Grooved end connections allow fast, tool-efficient assembly with standard grooved couplings
• Painted finish provides a baseline layer of corrosion protection
• Reducing tee geometry transitions a 4-inch main line to a 2-inch branch outlet in a single fitting
• Weighs 10.30 pounds, consistent with heavy-duty cast fittings for commercial mechanical systems

Compatibility

Designed for use with grooved piping systems using standard grooved-end pipe and compatible grooved couplings. Specific system or coupling compatibility should be verified against the Gruvlok 7061 series specifications and the pipe manufacturer's groove dimensions.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed pipefitter or qualified mechanical contractor in accordance with applicable mechanical codes. Depressurize and drain the piping system fully before removing any existing fittings or installing this tee. Use manufacturer-specified grooved couplings and gaskets to complete the joint. Verify that pipe groove dimensions conform to the required specifications before assembly to ensure a leak-free connection.
