Sized at 2 inches by 2 inches by 1.5 inches, this tee allows a branch takeoff from a main run while maintaining full structural integrity under elevated pressure and mechanical stress. The extra heavy (XH) wall rating makes it suitable for industrial, commercial, and heavy-duty mechanical piping applications. Weighing 4.22 pounds, the fitting is finished in black and manufactured from extra heavy malleable iron for long service life. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tee is used in black iron piping systems found in commercial and industrial settings, including gas distribution, compressed air, steam, and similar pressure-rated service lines. The 2 x 2 x 1.5 inch configuration accommodates a reduced branch outlet off a 2 inch main, making it a common choice when routing a branch line to a smaller downstream connection. It is appropriate for above-ground installations where extra heavy malleable iron fittings are specified by code or engineering design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtra heavy (XH) malleable iron construction for elevated pressure and mechanical load applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2 x 2 x 1.5 inch tee configuration supports a reduced branch takeoff from a 2 inch main\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish suitable for gas, air, steam, and other compatible piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded end connections for standard NPT assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeighs 4.22 pounds, indicating robust wall thickness versus standard-weight fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style extra heavy malleable iron pipe tee for use in 2 x 2 x 1.5 inch threaded black iron piping systems where XH-rated fittings are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of this fitting is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Always depressurize and isolate the piping system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Use appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium on all threaded connections. Verify that the fitting pressure rating meets or exceeds the system design pressure and that the installation complies with applicable local codes, including IFGC and ASME B31 standards where applicable.\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\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 x 2 x 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.22 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 777701204944\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: 20494\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51347741540658,"sku":"20494","price":15.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310553669.jpg?v=1782112514","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-usa-20494-black-malleable-iron-pipe-tee-2x2x1-5-in-xh","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
