Malleable iron construction provides superior strength and ductility over standard cast fittings, making this tee suitable for high-demand installations where durability and leak-free joints are critical. The black finish indicates this fitting is uncoated and ready for use in gas piping or other applications where a galvanized finish is not required. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of fitting as part of threaded pipe assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis extra heavy tee is used in residential and commercial piping installations where standard-weight fittings do not meet pressure or load requirements. Typical applications include natural gas distribution lines, steam systems, compressed air, and industrial process piping. The 1\/4-inch size fits standard NPT threaded pipe and is commonly found in branch connections off a main pipe run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtra heavy malleable iron construction for high-strength threaded piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish suitable for gas piping and non-corrosive fluid systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch NPT threaded connections on all three ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDuctile malleable iron resists cracking and mechanical stress better than standard cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.3 pounds for easy handling during installation\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 1\/4-inch NPT threaded pipe systems in gas, steam, water, and industrial fluid applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable code requirements such as the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off all gas or fluid supply and relieve system pressure before disassembling any threaded pipe connections. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before making up threaded joints. Do not over-tighten threaded fittings, as malleable iron threads can be damaged by excessive force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extra Heavy Malleable Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 777701204029\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: BMI USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20402\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51347313983794,"sku":"20402","price":21.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310553723.jpg?v=1782101240","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-usa-20402-malleable-iron-pipe-tee-1-4-in-extra-heavy","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
