Asc Engineered Solutions 810042812 Black Malleable Iron Tee

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 810042812 is a black-coated malleable iron tee fitting designed for threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing, mechanical, and gas distribution systems. The reducing tee connects a 1-1/4 inch run to a 1/2 inch branch, allowing a single fitting to handle directional flow splits or branch takeoffs without additional reducers. Malleable iron construction provides the ductility and thread-holding strength required in moderate-pressure service lines. The black coating offers corrosion resistance suitable for dry or low-moisture indoor environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting class.

This fitting is used in residential and light commercial piping systems where a reducing branch connection is needed. Common applications include gas supply lines, compressed air distribution, and general-purpose black iron pipe assemblies. The 1-1/4 inch by 1/2 inch reducing configuration is a standard size used when a main distribution run feeds a smaller branch line, such as a gas drip leg or appliance stub-out. It is threaded to accept NPT pipe on all three ports.

Key Features

• Malleable iron body for ductility and reliable thread engagement under torque
• Black coating for corrosion resistance in dry indoor service
• 1-1/4 inch run by 1/2 inch branch reducing configuration
• NPT threaded connections on all ports
• Weighs 0.88 pounds per fitting

Compatibility

Designed as a standard NPT-threaded replacement or new-installation fitting for black iron pipe systems in residential and commercial plumbing, gas, and mechanical piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, IPC, or IFGC requirements depending on the service fluid. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before cutting in or replacing any fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-torque malleable iron fittings, as cracking at the threads is possible if excessive force is applied.
