Asc Engineered Solutions 1XE.NMT Reducing Pipe Tee 150 Lb

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 1XE.NMT is a galvanized malleable iron reducing tee designed for threaded pipe assemblies in low-pressure piping systems. It features a 1 x 1 x 3/4 inch configuration with female National Pipe Taper (FNPT) threads on all three ports, allowing a branch reduction from the main run. Rated at 150 lb, it is suitable for use in gas, water, air, and steam service applications within its pressure class. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in both new construction and retrofit work where a threaded branch takeoff is required at a reduced size.

This reducing tee is used in residential and light commercial piping systems where a 3/4 inch branch must be tapped from a 1 inch main line. Common applications include natural gas distribution piping, potable water supply lines, compressed air distribution, and steam systems operating within the 150 lb pressure class. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance in exposed or mildly corrosive environments. It is a domestically produced fitting suitable for above-ground threaded iron pipe installations.

Key Features

• 1 x 1 x 3/4 inch reducing configuration for branch-size reduction off a main run
• FNPT threads on all three ports for standard threaded pipe connections
• 150 lb pressure class rating for low-pressure gas, water, air, and steam service
• Malleable iron construction provides impact resistance and durability in threaded assemblies
• Galvanized finish for corrosion protection in exposed installations
• Domestically produced fitting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1 inch FNPT threaded iron pipe systems requiring a 3/4 inch reducing branch outlet, within the 150 lb pressure class.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Plumbing Code (IPC), or the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) as appropriate to the service. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before cutting in or threading new fittings. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly and tighten to a wrench-tight fit. Do not over-torque threaded malleable iron fittings, as this can crack the casting.
