Bmi Usa 35459 Malleable Iron Black Pipe Tee 1-1/4x1x3/4

Product Description

The BMI USA 35459 is a malleable iron black pipe tee designed for use in threaded piping systems. This fitting connects three sections of pipe at a branch point, allowing flow to be split or combined within a run. The 1-1/4 x 1 x 3/4 inch configuration makes it suitable for reducing branch applications where pipe sizes change at the tee junction. It weighs 0.86 pounds and carries a black finish standard for gas and industrial piping installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this type of fitting in commercial and residential systems.

This tee is used in threaded black iron piping systems, most commonly in natural gas distribution, steam lines, compressed air, and similar fluid or gas conveyance applications. The reducing configuration handles transitions between a 1-1/4 inch run, a 1 inch run, and a 3/4 inch branch outlet. It is suited to both residential and light commercial installations where malleable iron fittings are specified.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction for strength and thread engagement in pressurized systems
• Black finish appropriate for gas piping and industrial applications

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, including IFGC requirements when used on gas lines. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any fitting. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium to all threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as malleable iron threads can crack under excessive force.
