This fitting connects baseboard heating elements to a main supply line using a three-port configuration: sweat inlet, female NPT branch, and sweat outlet. The 3\/4 x 1\/8 x 3\/4 inch sizing accommodates standard residential baseboard runs. Cast brass construction provides reliable corrosion resistance and the mechanical strength required for pressurized hot water systems. Plumbers and hydronic heating technicians install this fitting during new baseboard system builds and service replacements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tee is suited for residential and light commercial hydronic baseboard heating applications. The sweat-by-FNPT-by-sweat configuration allows the 1\/8 inch female NPT branch port to accept a pressure or temperature gauge, air vent, or other threaded accessory while maintaining copper-to-copper flow through the 3\/4 inch run. It is commonly installed at baseboard convector connection points along a primary loop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCast brass body for strength and corrosion resistance in hot water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/4 inch sweat inlet and outlet for direct copper pipe connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/8 inch FNPT branch port accepts gauges, air vents, or threaded fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree-port baseboard tee configuration for hydronic loop integration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact design suited for tight baseboard enclosure installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for residential and light commercial hydronic baseboard heating systems using 3\/4 inch copper supply and return lines with a 1\/8 inch NPT branch accessory port.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified hydronic heating technician. Shut down and depressurize the hydronic system and allow it to cool before cutting into any supply or return line. Sweat connections require proper flux application, a calibrated torch, and lead-free solder in compliance with applicable plumbing codes. The 1\/8 inch FNPT branch port should be thread-sealed with PTFE tape or pipe thread sealant rated for hot water service before installing any threaded accessory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 x 1\/8 x 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sweat x FNPT x Sweat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 662545011417\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: LEGEND VALVE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 302-253\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LEGEND VALVE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51467430854962,"sku":"302-253","price":15.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/313945122.png?v=1783904264","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/legend-valve-302-253-cast-brass-baseboard-tee-sweat-fnpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
