Bmi Usa 35577 Malleable Iron Black Pipe Tee

Product Description

The BMI USA 35577 is a malleable iron black pipe tee designed for joining threaded pipe runs in residential and light commercial piping systems. This reducing tee features a 2.5 x 0.75 x 2.5 inch configuration, allowing a branch connection at a reduced diameter off the main run. The black finish indicates an untreated iron surface suitable for gas, air, and certain water distribution applications. At 3.84 pounds, this is a solid, full-weight fitting built for durability in demanding service environments. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting where a branch takeoff is required on a threaded iron pipe system.

This tee is appropriate for use in residential and commercial gas distribution lines, compressed air systems, and black iron piping assemblies. The reducing center outlet accepts a 0.75 inch threaded connection while the run ports are sized at 2.5 inches, making it suitable for systems where a smaller branch feed is tapped off a larger main line. It is a standard threaded fitting that mates with NPT-threaded pipe and fittings of the corresponding sizes.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working on threaded iron pipe systems. Shut off the gas or air supply and depressurize the line before beginning any work.
