Macomb Group Approved 4201-292 Cpvc Reducing Tee

Product Description

The MACOMB GROUP APPROVED 4201-292 is a CPVC socket weld reducing tee designed for fire protection piping systems. Manufactured from CPVC material meeting ASTM D1784 Type IV Grade I Cell Class 23447, this molded fitting handles a nominal size of 2-1/2 x 2-1/2 x 2 inches and is rated for a maximum pressure of 175 psi at 150 degrees F. The distinctive orange finish identifies it as a fire-rated component at a glance. Licensed fire sprinkler contractors and pipefitters install this fitting in wet and dry pipe sprinkler systems where a branch reduction is required along the main run.

This reducing tee is suited for commercial and residential fire sprinkler installations where CPVC piping is specified. The socket weld connection method simplifies field assembly and produces a reliable, solvent-cemented joint that meets the demands of pressurized fire protection distribution lines. Its molded construction ensures consistent wall thickness and dimensional accuracy across each fitting, which is critical in life-safety piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed fire sprinkler contractor in accordance with NFPA 13 and applicable local codes. Depressurize and drain the affected piping section fully before cutting into an existing system. Use only CPVC-compatible solvent cement rated for fire sprinkler service and follow cure times before restoring system pressure. Do not use petroleum-based lubricants or tools that can stress or crack the CPVC body.
