This fitting connects three sections of pipe at a branch point, allowing flow to be split or combined within the run. The 2 x 2 x 1\/2 inch configuration features two full-size 2-inch ports on the run and a 1\/2-inch branch outlet. At 1.55 pounds, it is a solid, durable fitting suited for permanent installations where reliability under pressure is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install this type of fitting in both residential and light commercial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tee is used in threaded black iron piping systems common to natural gas supply lines, compressed air distribution, and fire suppression rough-in work. The black finish indicates an uncoated malleable iron fitting, which is the standard specification for gas service piping in residential and commercial construction. It is well suited for above-ground interior piping runs where a reducing branch connection is needed off a 2-inch main line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction for strength and durability in threaded piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish meeting standard specifications for gas service piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2 x 2 x 1\/2 inch reducing configuration for branch connections off a 2-inch run\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded end connections for use with standard NPT pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.55 pound solid fitting suitable for permanent installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded fitting for use in standard NPT black iron piping systems, including natural gas, compressed air, and general fluid distribution applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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.
