With a reducing configuration of 1 inch by 1 inch by 3\/4 inch, this tee allows a branch takeoff from a main run while stepping down to a smaller branch line. The extra heavy wall construction provides greater pressure capacity than standard weight fittings, making it a go-to choice where system integrity and durability are required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tee is suited for use in residential and commercial piping systems where threaded black iron fittings are specified. Common applications include gas distribution piping, steam and condensate lines, compressed air systems, and industrial process piping. The 1 x 1 x 3\/4 inch reducing configuration is a frequently used size for branch connections off a main distribution line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtra heavy (XH) wall malleable iron construction for higher pressure ratings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 inch by 1 inch run with a 3\/4 inch reducing branch outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack finish suitable for gas piping and industrial applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreaded ends for standard NPT pipe assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMalleable iron provides impact resistance and ductility versus standard cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded fitting for use in standard NPT black iron pipe systems in residential and commercial mechanical, gas, and plumbing installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC), or the International Plumbing Code (IPC) as required by the application. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before disassembling or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can crack malleable iron fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Reducing Tee 1 x 1 x 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.26 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 777701204388\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 20438\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346148131122,"sku":"20438","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310553547.jpg?v=1782072141","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-usa-20438-black-malleable-iron-pipe-tee-1x1x3-4-xh","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
