It features a 1\/2-inch A-side run, 1\/2-inch B-side run, and 3\/8-inch C-middle outlet, following the standard A-B-C sizing sequence. The flat-banded malleable iron construction provides the ductility and strength required for mechanical and plumbing applications where vibration or stress could affect rigid cast iron. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in branch connections on black iron pipe systems. Compliance with Federal Specification WW-P-521F, ANSI B-16.3, ANSI B-2.1, and ASTM A-197 confirms dimensional accuracy and material integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing tee is suited for residential and light commercial black iron pipe installations, including gas distribution piping, steam heating systems, and general fluid service lines. The 3\/8-inch branch outlet allows a reduction in line size at the tee point without requiring additional bushings. It is sold individually and is appropriate for any threaded pipe application where a branch takeoff at a reduced outlet size is needed. Installers working with Schedule 40 black iron pipe will find this fitting compatible with standard NPT thread engagement requirements per ANSI B-2.1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReducing configuration: 1\/2-inch run x 1\/2-inch run x 3\/8-inch branch outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction per ASTM A-197 for ductility and impact resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlat-banded design for consistent wall thickness and mechanical strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPT threads per ANSI B-2.1 for standard pipe thread compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDimensions conform to ANSI B-16.3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets Federal Specification WW-P-521F for pipe fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for threaded black iron pipe systems using standard NPT connections on 1\/2-inch and 3\/8-inch Schedule 40 pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with local plumbing codes and IFGC requirements where gas service is involved. De-pressurize and isolate the pipe section before disassembling or threading any fitting. Apply a listed pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium to all male NPT threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten; hand-tighten first, then use a pipe wrench for final engagement without exceeding thread limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRun Size (A and B)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size (C)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable Black Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT per ANSI B-2.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensional Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI B-16.3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A-197\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFederal Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: WW-P-521F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASC Engineered Solutions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8700121208\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346804080946,"sku":"8700121208","price":15.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310547248.jpg?v=1782090927","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-8700121208-black-iron-tee","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
