Asc Engineered Solutions 1DXE.NMT Reducing Tee 150 Lb Malleable Iron

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 1DXE.NMT is a malleable iron reducing tee designed for threaded pipe systems in plumbing, mechanical, and gas distribution applications. The fitting transitions from a 1-1/2 inch run on both the inlet and outlet to a 3/4 inch branch outlet, with female NPT threads on all three ports. Rated at 150 pounds working pressure, this tee carries a hot-dip galvanized finish that provides corrosion resistance in both exposed and concealed installations. It is manufactured domestically to ASME standards common in commercial and residential mechanical systems.

This reducing tee is suited for water supply, heating, and low-pressure gas piping systems where a branch connection of a smaller diameter is needed without additional fittings. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, and above-ceiling distribution piping. The galvanized coating makes it appropriate for wet or damp environments where bare iron would corrode prematurely.

Key Features

• Reducing branch configuration: 1-1/2 x 1-1/2 x 3/4 inches for inline branch takeoffs
• Female NPT threads on all three ports for standard threaded pipe connections
• 150 lb pressure rating suitable for water, steam, and low-pressure gas service
• Malleable iron construction provides strength and impact resistance in threaded fittings
• Hot-dip galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet or exposed environments
• Domestic manufacture supports project specifications requiring USA-made components

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 1-1/2 inch NPT threaded pipe systems requiring a 3/4 inch branch outlet, compatible with standard Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 NPT-threaded pipe in plumbing and mechanical piping assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Plumbing Code, or the International Fuel Gas Code where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the supply line completely before disassembling any existing fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before make-up, and tighten with a pipe wrench to achieve a leak-free joint without over-torquing the malleable iron body. Inspect all joints after pressurizing the system.
