Asc Engineered Solutions 311053805 Malleable Iron Reducing Tee

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 311053805 is a threaded galvanized malleable iron reducing tee designed for joining and branching threaded pipe systems. The fitting measures 2.5 inches by 1.5 inches by 2.5 inches and connects a reduced-diameter branch to a full-size run. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance suitable for exposed or mildly corrosive environments. Malleable iron construction offers the strength and ductility needed to withstand the mechanical stress common in pressurized piping systems. This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on water, gas, or general mechanical systems where standard NPT threaded connections are specified.

This reducing tee is used in residential and commercial piping installations where a 1.5-inch branch line must be taken off a 2.5-inch main run. Typical applications include water distribution, natural gas supply, compressed air, and steam systems that require a change in branch diameter within the same threaded assembly. Domestic manufacture supports projects with domestic-content requirements.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction provides strength and resistance to mechanical shock
• Galvanized coating resists corrosion in exposed and moderately harsh environments
• Threaded connections accept standard NPT fittings for quick, tool-ready assembly
• Reducing configuration transitions a 2.5-inch run to a 1.5-inch branch in a single fitting
• Domestically manufactured to support compliance with domestic-content specifications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for threaded malleable iron piping systems requiring a 2.5-inch by 1.5-inch by 2.5-inch reducing tee connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with the International Plumbing Code or applicable local mechanical codes. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten; use a pipe wrench and backup wrench to avoid stressing adjacent connections.
