Asc Engineered Solutions 1DX1BX1.BMT Reducing Tee 1.5x1.25x1 in

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 1DX1BX1.BMT is a black malleable iron reducing tee rated at 150 lb, designed for use in threaded pipe systems where a branch line requires a size reduction at the junction point. All three connections are female NPT (FNPT), with run ports sized at 1-1/2 inches and 1-1/4 inches and a branch port sized at 1 inch. Malleable iron construction delivers the toughness and ductility needed for gas distribution, steam, and industrial piping applications. This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on commercial and industrial systems as well as residential gas and mechanical piping.

This reducing tee is suited for low-pressure gas piping, steam lines, air supply systems, and water distribution where a threaded branch connection with differing port sizes is required. The black finish is standard for gas service applications. Domestic manufacture supports compliance requirements on projects that specify country-of-origin restrictions. This fitting is commonly found in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, and gas distribution manifolds where space and flow demands call for a reducing junction.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction provides strength and impact resistance in threaded piping systems
• 150 lb pressure rating suitable for steam, gas, air, and water service
• FNPT connections on all three ports for standard threaded pipe assembly
• Reducing configuration: 1-1/2 inch run inlet, 1-1/4 inch run outlet, 1 inch branch
• Black finish standard for gas distribution piping applications
• Domestically manufactured to support buy-domestic project requirements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style threaded fitting for use with standard Schedule 40 malleable iron pipe systems using NPT threading in 1-1/2 inch, 1-1/4 inch, and 1 inch pipe sizes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes including the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) depending on service type. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before making or breaking any threaded connections. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before assembly. Do not over-tighten FNPT connections, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive torque.
