The fitting connects run sizes of 1\/2 inch to a 1\/2 inch outlet and accepts a 3\/4 inch branch, using female National Pipe Taper (FNPT) threads on all three ports. The black finish is standard for gas piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in commercial and residential mechanical systems where a directional branch connection with a size change is required at the branch port.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing tee is suited for low-pressure threaded pipe systems including natural gas distribution, compressed air lines, and general-purpose fluid handling within the 150 lb pressure class. The FNPT thread pattern is compatible with standard NPT-threaded pipe and fittings. The domestic manufacture designation indicates production in the United States, which satisfies Buy American provisions on qualifying projects. It is commonly used in mechanical rooms, boiler rooms, and utility piping runs where branch connections must reduce to a different pipe size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction provides durability and thread integrity under mechanical stress\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e150 lb pressure class rating suitable for standard low-pressure gas, air, and water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFNPT threads on all three ports for straightforward assembly with standard NPT pipe and fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish meets common requirements for gas piping identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReducing branch configuration: 1\/2 x 1\/2 inch run with 3\/4 inch branch port\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDomestic manufacture supports Buy American compliance on applicable projects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard 150 lb malleable iron threaded pipe systems using NPT-threaded pipe in 1\/2 inch and 3\/4 inch sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local mechanical and plumbing codes, including IFGC requirements when used on gas piping. Shut off and depressurize the line before assembly or disassembly. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male NPT threads before making up the joint. Do not over-torque malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRun Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 x 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBranch Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: FNPT (Female National Pipe Taper)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Class\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Domestic (USA)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASC Engineered Solutions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: DXE.BMT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51524862640434,"sku":"BLTRED121234","price":17.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/dcae005b1074fe25268b315726680de8_6f673063-e122-4990-8013-976f528fce2f.jpg?v=1785459923","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-dxe-bmt-reducing-tee-1-2x1-2x3-4-in-fnpt-150-lb-malleable-iron","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
