Asc Engineered Solutions 1XEXE.NMT Reducing Tee Fnpt 150 Lb

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 1XEXE.NMT is a malleable iron pipe reducing tee with a galvanized finish, rated at 150 lb and threaded with female NPT (FNPT) connections. It features a 1-inch run with 3/4-inch branch and outlet ports, making it a standard reducing configuration for gas, water, and steam distribution piping systems. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance in exposed or damp environments. This fitting is domestically manufactured and intended for installation by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on low-pressure commercial or residential piping systems.

This reducing tee is commonly used in residential and light commercial piping installations where a main line must be tapped with a reduced branch connection. Typical applications include gas distribution lines, hydronic heating systems, compressed air, and potable water piping where 150 lb malleable iron fittings meet the pressure and temperature requirements of the system. The FNPT thread pattern allows straightforward assembly with standard threaded pipe using pipe joint compound or PTFE tape.

Key Features

• 150 lb pressure rating suitable for low-pressure gas, steam, and water service
• FNPT threads on all three ports for compatibility with standard threaded pipe
• Reducing configuration: 1 inch run x 3/4 inch branch x 3/4 inch outlet
• Malleable iron construction provides impact resistance and durability
• Galvanized finish for corrosion protection in exposed or humid environments
• Domestically manufactured

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard 150 lb malleable iron threaded piping systems with 1-inch and 3/4-inch NPT pipe.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes, including the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before making any fitting connections. Apply pipe joint compound or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly and tighten to hand-tight plus the appropriate number of turns for the pipe size. Do not overtighten malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive force.
