This fitting connects a 1-1\/4 inch run on both the inlet and outlet with a 1-1\/2 inch branch outlet, making it suitable for directional flow changes and branch takeoffs where pipe sizes differ. Malleable iron construction provides the toughness and ductility needed for threaded connections in demanding service environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in gas, water, and general piping systems where black iron fittings are specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing tee is used in residential, commercial, and industrial piping applications. The bull head orientation — where the branch diameter is larger than the run — is commonly specified in systems requiring increased flow capacity at the branch outlet. Typical install scenarios include gas distribution piping, compressed air lines, fire suppression headers, and general mechanical room piping where black malleable iron fittings are required by code or design specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack malleable iron construction for strength and ductility in threaded piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBull head tee configuration with larger branch outlet than run diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded connections on all three ports for standard NPT pipe assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for gas, water, compressed air, and general mechanical piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard black iron pipe in residential, commercial, and industrial installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement fitting for threaded black malleable iron piping systems.

Shut off and depressurize the line completely before disassembling or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or pipe tape to all male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Malleable Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded (NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRun Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBranch Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bull Head Reducing Tee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MATCO-NORCA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: zmbtr060607\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MATCO-NORCA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51138357788978,"sku":"ZMBTR060607","price":31.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/305534591.png?v=1778254161","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/matco-norca-zmbtr060607-black-malleable-reducing-tee","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
