Asc Engineered Solutions 310522008 Malleable Iron Tee

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 310522008 is an extra-heavy (XH) malleable iron tee designed for threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing and mechanical systems. It features a reducing center port measuring 3/4 inch with 1-inch run ports, all three connections being female pipe thread (FPT). Manufactured to ASTM A-197 material specification and conforming to ASME B16.3 pressure rating standards, this fitting is built for demanding service conditions. The black finish is standard for malleable iron fittings used in gas, steam, and compressed air piping. UL and FM listed, it meets strict safety and performance requirements for commercial and industrial applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers.

This tee is suited for residential and commercial piping installations where a branch takeoff is required from a main run. The reducing 3/4-inch branch connection allows a step-down to smaller pipe lines without additional bushings in many configurations. Common applications include gas distribution piping, steam systems, compressed air headers, and industrial fluid lines. Its extra-heavy wall construction makes it appropriate for higher-pressure service or installations where additional mechanical strength is needed.

Key Features

• Extra-heavy (XH) wall strength for demanding pressure applications
• All female pipe thread (FPT) connections on all three ports
• Manufactured to ASTM A-197 malleable iron specification
• Pressure rating per ASME B16.3 standard
• Thread specification per ASME B1.20.1
• UL and FM listed for safety-critical piping systems
• Black finish standard for gas and steam piping identification

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for threaded malleable iron pipe systems. Compatible with standard tapered NPT threaded pipe per ASME B1.20.1 in 1-inch and 3/4-inch sizes.

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. Shut off and depressurize the piping system fully before disassembling or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive force.
