Asc Engineered Solutions 1XEX1.NMT Pipe Reducing Tee

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 1XEX1.NMT is a malleable iron galvanized pipe reducing tee rated at 150 lb, with female National Pipe Taper (FNPT) threads on all three ports. It measures 1 inch on the run ports and reduces to 3/4 inch on the branch port, making it a reliable fitting for transitioning between pipe sizes in threaded pipe systems. Domestically manufactured, this fitting is suited for plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping applications where a durable, corrosion-resistant tee connection is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers.

This reducing tee is used in residential and light commercial piping systems where a main run must branch off at a reduced diameter. Common applications include water supply lines, low-pressure gas piping, and steam or air distribution systems operating within the 150 lb pressure class. The galvanized finish provides added corrosion resistance for wet or moderately corrosive environments.

Key Features

• 1 inch run ports x 3/4 inch branch port for in-line size reduction
• FNPT threads on all three ports for standard threaded pipe connection
• 150 lb pressure class rating suitable for water, gas, air, and steam service
• Malleable iron construction provides strength and resistance to mechanical stress
• Hot-dip galvanized finish improves corrosion resistance in wet environments
• Domestically manufactured to applicable ANSI/ASME B16.3 standards for malleable iron fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 150 lb class threaded malleable iron pipe systems using 1 inch and 3/4 inch nominal pipe sizes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IFGC requirements for gas service. Always depressurize and drain the piping system fully before removing or installing threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly, and tighten to hand-tight plus the required turns without over-torquing, which can crack the fitting. Do not use this fitting beyond its rated pressure class.
