Bmi Usa 6416 Brass Tee Fitting 1/4x1/4x1/8 Lead Free

Product Description

The BMI USA 6416 is a lead-free brass threaded tee fitting designed for use in plumbing and fluid distribution systems where a single line must be split into two outlets or where branch connections are required. The fitting features a 1/4 x 1/4 x 1/8 inch port configuration, making it suitable for applications that require a reduced branch outlet. Constructed from brass, the 6416 offers solid corrosion resistance and reliable thread engagement in low-pressure residential and light commercial service lines. Licensed plumbers and experienced trade professionals are the typical installers of this fitting type.

This tee fitting is commonly used in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC condensate lines, compressed air distribution, and similar fluid-handling systems where NPT-threaded brass connections are specified. The 1/4 x 1/4 x 1/8 inch port sizing accommodates smaller-diameter branch runs off a main 1/4 inch line. Lead-free construction makes it appropriate for use in potable water systems where lead-free material compliance is required by code.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe compound to male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free connection. Do not overtighten threaded brass fittings, as this can crack the fitting body or damage threads.
