The tee configuration allows a branch connection at 90 degrees to the main pipe run, making it a standard fitting in gas distribution, steam, and general-purpose piping assemblies. Constructed from extra heavy malleable iron, this fitting delivers greater wall thickness and load-bearing capacity compared to standard-weight fittings. At 1.48 pounds, it is sized for 1-inch pipe installations handled by licensed plumbers and pipefitters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for residential and commercial pipe installations where a threaded branch outlet is required on a 1-inch main line. Typical applications include gas supply lines, compressed air distribution, steam systems, and general water or fluid piping where extra heavy-duty fittings are specified by code or design. It is installed by plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors working with NPT threaded iron pipe systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtra heavy malleable iron construction for increased wall thickness and strength over standard fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish suitable for gas, steam, and general mechanical piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e90-degree branch outlet provides in-line tee connection for 1-inch threaded pipe runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded connections compatible with standard NPT pipe threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeighs 1.48 pounds, indicating robust material stock appropriate for demanding service conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 1-inch NPT threaded malleable iron pipe systems in plumbing and mechanical applications.\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 applicable local plumbing codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing any existing fittings or making new connections. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly; do not overtighten, as malleable iron threads can crack under excessive torque. Verify system pressure ratings and fitting specifications against local code requirements before placing the fitting into service.\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\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.48 pounds\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: 20406\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51342798094642,"sku":"20406","price":31.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310553833.jpg?v=1782006953","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-usa-20406-black-malleable-iron-pipe-tee-1-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
