Bmi Usa 35572 Malleable Iron Black Pipe Tee

Product Description

The BMI USA 35572 is a malleable iron black pipe tee designed for threaded piping systems in commercial and residential applications. This fitting connects three sections of pipe at a branch point, allowing flow to split or combine at a 90-degree angle to the run. Constructed from malleable iron with a black finish, it offers reliable durability in moderate-pressure piping environments. The tee measures 2.5 x 2.5 x 1.25 inches and weighs 3.09 pounds, making it a substantial, heavy-duty fitting suitable for gas, air, and similar piping systems. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians are the typical installers of this type of fitting.

This malleable iron tee is suited for use in low-pressure gas lines, compressed air systems, water distribution, and general industrial piping where threaded connections are specified. The 2.5 x 2.5 x 1.25-inch configuration accommodates a reducing branch, making it practical where a smaller branch line taps off a larger main run. It is commonly found in commercial mechanical rooms, industrial facilities, and residential utility installations where code-compliant threaded pipe assemblies are required.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction provides strength and resistance to impact and vibration in threaded pipe systems
• Black finish suited for gas piping and general industrial applications
• 2.5 x 2.5 x 1.25-inch reducing configuration connects a smaller branch to a larger pipe run
• Threaded ends accept standard NPT pipe for secure, leak-resistant assembly
• Weighs 3.09 pounds, indicating a heavy-duty casting appropriate for demanding service environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style malleable iron threaded pipe tee for use in standard NPT threaded piping systems requiring a 2.5 x 2.5 x 1.25-inch reducing tee configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, including IPC and IFGC requirements for gas and water piping systems. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as malleable iron fittings can crack if excessive force is applied.
