B K Mueller 520-608HN Black Equal Tee 2 Inches

Product Description

The B K Mueller Industries 520-608HN is a 2-inch black equal tee fitting used in threaded pipe systems for gas, air, and water distribution applications. This malleable iron-style tee provides a straight three-way branch connection with equal-sized openings on all three ports. It is a standard, workhorse fitting installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors wherever a branch takeoff is required in a black pipe run. The fitting ships in a package quantity of four units, making it practical for service vans and job-site restocking.

This equal tee is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications including natural gas supply lines, compressed air distribution, and black iron water or steam systems. It is threaded on all three ports to mate with standard NPT pipe and fittings. The equal-port configuration makes it the go-to choice when the branch line and the run line share the same nominal pipe size, eliminating the need for a reducing fitting.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and IFGC or IPC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system fully before cutting in or threading new fittings. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium to all male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections; wrench-tighten to snug and follow standard pipefitting practice for the pipe size and service type.
