Bmi Usa 35476 Malleable Iron Black Pipe Tee

Product Description

The BMI USA 35476 is a malleable iron black pipe tee designed for threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping systems. With a run size of 1-1/2 inches and branch and outlet sizes of 1-1/4 inches, this tee creates a right-angle branch connection in a straight pipe run. The black finish is standard for gas piping applications. Malleable iron construction provides the ductility and thread engagement strength needed for reliable, leak-free connections under mechanical stress. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically handle installation in commercial and residential mechanical rooms.

This tee fits standard NPT-threaded pipe systems and is well suited for natural gas, propane, steam, and water distribution lines where black iron fittings are specified. The 1-1/2 inch run with 1-1/4 inch branch and outlet dimensions make it a common reducing tee for branch-off runs stepping down from a main distribution line. It is appropriate for both residential and light commercial installations where malleable iron fittings meet code requirements.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction for ductility and strong thread engagement
• Black finish appropriate for gas and steam piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard fitting for NPT-threaded malleable iron pipe systems in residential and commercial plumbing and gas distribution applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, IFGC, or IPC requirements. Shut off gas or water supply and depressurize the line before beginning work. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service type — gas-rated sealant is required on gas lines. Do not over-torque fittings, as excessive force can crack the fitting or damage threads.
