Bmi Usa 35010 Black Malleable Iron Pipe Coupling 2.5 in

Product Description

The BMI USA 35010 is a 2.5-inch black malleable iron pipe coupling designed for joining threaded pipe sections in gas, air, and general plumbing distribution systems. Malleable iron construction provides the ductility and thread integrity needed for reliable, pressure-rated connections. The black finish indicates an oil-dipped coating standard for gas piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this coupling in both new construction and retrofit work where a straight, same-size threaded connection is required.

This coupling suits residential and light commercial piping systems where standard threaded black iron pipe is specified. Typical applications include natural gas supply lines, compressed air distribution, and steam systems where malleable iron fittings are required by code. The 2.5-inch nominal size fits mid-range distribution runs where a full-size coupling is needed to connect two pipe ends without reducing flow path diameter.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction for ductility and resistance to thread stripping under torque
• Black oil-dipped finish standard for gas piping applications
• 2.5-inch nominal size for mid-range threaded pipe connections
• Straight coupling design joins two same-size pipe ends without transition or reduction
• Threaded ends accept standard NPT pipe threads

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 2.5-inch nominal black iron threaded pipe systems in gas, air, and general service piping.

Installation Notes

Installation 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 application. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before removing or installing any pipe fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before threading the coupling onto the pipe. Inspect threads on both the pipe and fitting before assembly to ensure no cross-threading or damage.
