Asc Engineered Solutions 8700120705 Black Iron Tee 2 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700120705 is a 2-inch malleable black iron tee fitting designed for threaded pipe systems in commercial and residential plumbing, mechanical piping, and gas distribution applications. Constructed from malleable iron with a flat banded exterior, this tee provides a reliable branch connection in standard NPT-threaded pipelines. It meets Federal Specification WW-P-521F, ANSI B-16.3 dimensional standards, ANSI B-2.1 pipe thread requirements, and ASTM A-197 chemical and physical property specifications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of pressure-rated piping assemblies where a durable, code-compliant branch connection is required.

This fitting is suited for use in residential and light commercial piping systems where malleable iron threaded fittings are specified. Typical applications include steam, water, gas, and air distribution lines. The 2-inch size fits standard Schedule 40 threaded pipe and is commonly used in mechanical rooms, boiler rooms, and industrial piping runs where branch connections are needed at the main line.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard 2-inch NPT threaded malleable iron piping systems conforming to ANSI B-16.3 dimensional requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Plumbing Code or International Fuel Gas Code where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as malleable iron threads can crack under excessive torque.
