Manufactured from malleable iron with a black finish, this tee provides a durable, pressure-rated junction point where a branch line must split off from a main run. The three-way configuration measures 2.5 x 2.5 x 2 inches and weighs 3.66 pounds, making it a substantial fitting suited for demanding trade installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis black malleable iron tee is commonly used in residential and commercial gas piping, steam lines, and threaded water distribution systems. Its black finish distinguishes it from galvanized fittings, which are not permitted in many gas piping applications per applicable fuel gas codes. The 2.5 x 2.5 x 2 inch reducing configuration allows a branch connection at a reduced diameter off the main line, a common layout requirement in mechanical room rough-ins and above-slab gas distribution runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction provides strength and impact resistance in threaded pipe systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish is appropriate for gas piping applications where galvanized fittings are restricted\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.5 x 2.5 x 2 inch reducing tee configuration accommodates a branch at a smaller diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded connection type allows field assembly without specialized tooling beyond pipe wrenches and a threading machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3.66-pound weight reflects heavy-duty wall thickness typical of code-compliant malleable iron fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard threaded malleable iron pipe systems in residential and commercial plumbing, gas, and mechanical piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of this fitting should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, including the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) where relevant. Shut off all gas or water supply and depressurize the line fully before disassembling existing piping. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service media before making up threaded joints. Do not over-tighten or use pipe wrenches on the fitting body in a way that could crack the iron.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 x 2.5 x 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.66 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 777701355707\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: BMI USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35570\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMI USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346838520114,"sku":"35570","price":53.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310554049.jpg?v=1782091981","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bmi-usa-35570-malleable-iron-black-pipe-tee-2-5x2-5x2-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
