Asc 8700126959 3/4 in Galvanized Malleable Iron Pipe Cross

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 8700126959 is a 3/4 inch malleable iron galvanized pipe cross fitting designed for joining four sections of pipe at a single intersection point. The flat banded body is hot-dip galvanized to resist corrosion in wet or outdoor service conditions. This fitting is manufactured to meet Federal Specification WW-P-521F, ANSI B16.3 dimensional standards, ANSI B2.1 pipe thread standards, ASTM A197 chemical and physical property requirements, and ASTM A153 galvanizing requirements. It is sold individually and is a standard component in threaded piping assemblies across commercial and industrial applications.

This cross fitting is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, gas distribution, and light industrial piping systems where four-way branch connections are required. The galvanized finish makes it appropriate for installations exposed to moisture or mild corrosive environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install this fitting in threaded iron pipe systems where code-compliant, durable fittings are required at branch points.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction meets ASTM A197 chemical and physical property requirements
• Hot-dip galvanized finish per ASTM A153 for corrosion resistance
• Flat banded body style for standard threaded pipe assembly
• Dimensionally compliant with ANSI B16.3 and ANSI B2.1 pipe thread standards
• Meets Federal Specification WW-P-521F for standard malleable iron fittings
• Sold as a single unit with no minimum quantity requirement beyond one

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 3/4 inch threaded iron pipe systems using standard NPT connections per ANSI B2.1.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before disassembling or adding any threaded fittings. Use thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium and apply it to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive mechanical stress.
