This fitting connects a 1-1\/2 inch run with a 1 inch outlet and a 1\/2 inch branch, allowing flow to be split or redirected while stepping down pipe size in a single fitting. At 1.83 pounds, it is a solid, domestically produced cast iron fitting with a black coating that resists corrosion in typical above-ground service conditions. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in both new construction and retrofit work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing tee is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications where a change in pipe diameter is needed at a branch connection. Common install scenarios include gas supply lines, steam systems, and water distribution headers where run and branch sizes differ. The fitting accommodates a 1-1\/2 inch main run, a 1 inch outlet on the opposite end, and a 1\/2 inch branch takeoff, making it practical for manifold-style or multi-zone piping configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCast iron construction provides durability in threaded pipe systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack coating finish for above-ground service applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReducing configuration handles three different pipe sizes in one fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDomestically produced for consistent dimensional tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeighs 1.83 pounds for a solid, rigid connection at the branch point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard-service fitting for threaded black cast iron pipe systems requiring a 1-1\/2 inch x 1 inch x 1\/2 inch reducing tee configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the IPC, or IFGC depending on the service application. Shut off and depressurize the line before disassembling or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly, and tighten to hand-tight plus the additional turns required to seat the fitting without over-stressing the casting. Do not use cast iron fittings on systems with pressures or temperatures that exceed the rated limits for the fitting class.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 in x 1 in x 1\/2 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Reducing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.83 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Domestic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 300044807\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233662828850,"sku":"0300044807","price":163.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307630260.jpg?v=1780106131","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-300044807-cast-iron-reducing-tee","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
