Asc Engineered Solutions 310524202 Malleable Iron Tee

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 310524202 is a black malleable iron reducing tee rated to Extra Heavy (XH) strength, designed for threaded pipe systems in commercial and industrial plumbing applications. The fitting connects two 1.5-inch female pipe thread (FPT) run ports to a 1.25-inch FPT branch outlet, conforming to ASME B16.3 pressure rating standards and ASME B1.20.1 thread specifications. The base metal meets ASTM A-197 malleable iron requirements. At 3.05 pounds, the fitting is built for demanding installations where standard-weight fittings are not suitable. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in ferrous threaded piping systems requiring reduced branch connections.

This tee is suited for commercial and industrial plumbing systems using black iron pipe, including gas distribution, compressed air, fire protection, and other applications where XH-rated malleable iron fittings are specified. The black finish is standard for gas piping and similar services. UL and FM listings support use in regulated installations where certified fittings are required by code or by the authority having jurisdiction.

Key Features

• Extra Heavy (XH) strength rating for high-demand piping systems
• All three ports are female pipe thread (FPT) for standard threaded pipe assembly
• Reducing branch design: 1.5 x 1.5 inch run, 1.25 inch branch outlet
• Conforms to ASME B16.3 pressure rating and ASME B1.20.1 thread specifications
• Malleable iron base material per ASTM A-197
• UL and FM listed for use in certified, code-regulated installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for threaded black iron pipe systems using 1.5-inch run pipe and 1.25-inch branch pipe, conforming to ASME B16.3 and ASME B1.20.1 standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, IFGC, or IPC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before disassembling or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections; follow applicable code guidance for thread engagement on malleable iron fittings.
