Sized at 1-1\/4 x 1 inch and built to Schedule 10 wall thickness, this tee is suited for branch-line reductions in process piping, chemical handling, and marine or coastal installations where 316L material grade is specified for its low-carbon content and resistance to intergranular corrosion. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this fitting in applications where weld integrity and material compatibility are critical to system performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is appropriate for residential and commercial piping systems that call for Schedule 10 stainless construction. It is commonly used in food-service lines, pharmaceutical facilities, marine plumbing, and corrosive-fluid process lines. The butt weld end connection on both the run and branch requires proper joint preparation and qualified welding procedure, making it a component for professional trade installation rather than compression or threaded retrofit work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e316L low-carbon stainless steel resists intergranular corrosion in demanding environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 10 wall thickness suits moderate-pressure piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eButt weld x butt weld end connections on all outlets for full-penetration weld joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReducing tee configuration transitions 1-1\/4 inch run to 1 inch branch in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUNSPSC code 40175300 for procurement and catalog classification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 10 stainless steel butt weld piping systems requiring 1-1\/4 x 1 inch reducing tee geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a qualified welder following applicable welding procedure specifications for 316L stainless steel. Purge the pipe interior with inert gas during welding to prevent oxidation of the weld root. Shut down and depressurize the system completely before cutting into any existing line. Follow IPC and applicable local mechanical codes for piping support, joint inspection, and pressure testing after installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Reducing Tee\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 x 1 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316L Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Butt Weld x Butt Weld\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.52 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40175300\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: MERIT BRASS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 01606-2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539420643634,"sku":"01606-2016","price":503.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e0654bba2e4b280b4351f9b9abdc6958_44c5be47-fdca-4604-be94-df5ecb7ef248.jpg?v=1785839874","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-01606-2016-316l-ss-reducing-tee-1-1-4x1-sch-10","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
