Bmi Usa 35534 Malleable Iron Black Pipe Tee

Product Description

The BMI USA 35534 is a malleable iron black pipe tee designed for threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping systems. This reducing tee connects a 2-inch run to a 1-1/2-inch outlet and branches to a 3/4-inch port, allowing flow direction changes and branch takeoffs within a single fitting. Malleable iron construction provides the toughness required for commercial and industrial service conditions. The black finish is standard for gas piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting type.

This tee is suited for residential and light commercial gas supply lines, steam and hot water heating systems, compressed air distribution, and general mechanical piping where threaded malleable iron fittings are specified. The reducing configuration accommodates transitions between pipe sizes in the same assembly without the need for additional bushings, making it a practical choice in retrofit and new-construction work alike.

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 appropriate to the service. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as malleable iron fittings can crack if excessive force is applied.
