Asc Engineered Solutions 320201064 Taper Tap Coupling 1-1/4 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 320201064 is a 1-1/4 inch Extra Heavy black steel taper tap coupling designed for threaded pipe systems in commercial and industrial piping installations. This fitting features a taper-tapped thread profile that allows a branch connection to be made into an existing run of pipe without cutting or welding. Weighing 1.08 pounds, the extra heavy wall construction is suited for higher-pressure or more demanding service conditions than standard-weight fittings. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of coupling where a secure, leak-resistant branch tap is required on black steel pipe systems.

This taper tap coupling is used in black steel pipe systems found in commercial plumbing, gas distribution, compressed air, and industrial fluid-handling applications. The extra heavy designation indicates a heavier wall thickness appropriate for elevated pressure service. It is field-installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working on threaded black steel pipe networks, typically in mechanical rooms, industrial facilities, or commercial construction projects.

Key Features

• 1-1/4 inch fitting size for standard threaded pipe connections
• Extra heavy wall construction for higher-pressure service conditions
• Taper-tapped thread profile provides a secure, leak-resistant branch connection
• Black steel material suitable for gas, air, and industrial fluid service
• Compact, single-piece fitting simplifies branch tap installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1-1/4 inch threaded black steel pipe systems requiring an extra heavy taper tap branch connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before making any threaded connections. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly and tighten to a snug, leak-free fit using appropriate pipe wrenches. Pressure-test the system after installation before returning it to service.
