Bmi Usa 6437 Brass Threaded Tee 1x1x1/4 Inch Lead Free

Product Description

The BMI USA 6437 is a lead-free brass threaded tee fitting designed for joining and branching threaded pipe runs in plumbing and mechanical systems. With a 1 x 1 x 1/4 inch configuration, the tee accepts two full-size 1-inch connections and one reduced 1/4-inch branch outlet. Constructed from solid brass, it delivers reliable corrosion resistance and long service life in potable water and hydronic applications. The lead-free construction meets safe drinking water standards, making it appropriate for domestic water service. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting type.

The BMI USA 6437 is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a threaded branch connection is needed off a 1-inch main line. The 1/4-inch branch port accommodates instrument taps, pressure gauge connections, drain ports, and similar small-diameter branch lines. Its threaded ends accept standard NPT fittings, allowing straightforward integration into new construction and retrofit piping work.

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 depressurize the line before removing any existing fittings or making new connections. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as brass fittings can crack under excessive torque.
