Asc Engineered Solutions 2X1DX1D.BMT Pipe Reducing Tee

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 2X1DX1D.BMT is a malleable iron pipe reducing tee rated at 150 lb, designed for use in threaded pipe assemblies where a 2-inch run must reduce to 1.5-inch branch and outlet connections. The fitting features female national pipe taper (FNPT) threads on all three ports and is finished in black. It is a standard Class 150 threaded fitting used by plumbers and pipefitters in gas distribution, compressed air, and water piping systems in residential and light commercial construction.

This reducing tee is suited for applications that require a change in pipe diameter within a threaded iron pipe network. Typical install scenarios include gas line distribution trees, industrial air supply manifolds, and black iron plumbing rough-in work. The domestic manufacture designation indicates the fitting meets standards expected for projects requiring USA-produced components. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting class.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction provides strength and resistance to impact in threaded piping systems
• Class 150 pressure rating suitable for standard low-pressure gas and water service
• FNPT threads on all three ports for compatibility with standard tapered pipe thread connections
• Black finish appropriate for gas piping applications
• Reducing configuration: 2-inch run ports, 1.5-inch branch port
• Domestic manufacture for projects with USA-origin material requirements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Class 150 malleable iron threaded pipe systems using standard NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive force.
