Asc Engineered Solutions 390018067 Grooved Reducing Tee 6x2.5 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 390018067 is a grooved painted reducing tee designed for use in piped fluid systems where a branch connection of a smaller diameter is required off a larger main line. Manufactured from ductile iron and finished with a painted coating for corrosion resistance, this fitting accepts grooved-end pipe on all three ports. The main run measures 6 inches and the branch outlet measures 2.5 inches. At 23.20 pounds, this is a substantial, full-weight fitting suited for demanding commercial and industrial piping applications. Licensed pipefitters and mechanical contractors are the primary installers.

This reducing tee is appropriate for commercial and industrial piping systems where a grooved mechanical joining method is specified. The 6 inch by 2.5 inch configuration is commonly used in fire protection, HVAC hydronic distribution, and general process piping where a reducing branch tap is needed. It is intended for use with compatible grooved couplings and fittings per the grooved piping system design. The painted finish suits both interior and sheltered exterior installations.

Key Features

• Ductile iron construction for high strength and impact resistance in pressurized piping systems
• Painted exterior finish provides a baseline layer of corrosion protection
• Grooved end connections on all three ports for use with mechanical grooved couplings
• Reducing configuration transitions a 6 inch main run to a 2.5 inch branch outlet
• Substantial 23.20 pound unit weight reflects full ductile iron wall thickness

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style grooved reducing tee for use in grooved mechanical piping systems requiring a 6 inch by 2.5 inch reducing branch connection. Compatible couplings and mating fittings must be selected to match the grooved pipe specification in use.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed pipefitter or mechanical contractor familiar with grooved piping systems. De-pressurize and drain the affected piping section before removing or installing any grooved fitting. Verify that pipe ends are properly rolled or cut-grooved to the correct groove specification before seating the coupling. Follow applicable mechanical codes, including NFPA 13 for fire protection systems or local plumbing and mechanical codes as required by jurisdiction.
