Midland Industries 45254LFCP Bronze Tee 3/4 in Fpt 125 Lb

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 45254LFCP is a lead-free bronze tee fitting with a chrome-plated finish, designed for threaded plumbing connections in water supply and distribution systems. All three ports are 3/4-inch female pipe thread (FPT) with a 3/4-14 thread specification, allowing a straight branch split from a main line run. The fitting carries a 125 lb pressure class rating and meets lead-free material requirements, making it suitable for potable water applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting during new construction, renovation, and repair work on residential and light commercial water systems.

This tee fitting is used wherever a 3/4-inch threaded branch connection is needed on a water supply line. Typical applications include splitting a main water feed to serve fixtures, appliances, or sub-runs in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. The chrome-plated exterior makes it appropriate for exposed installations where a finished appearance is required, such as under-sink supply lines, mechanical room piping, or visible wall-mount configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly and tighten to hand-tight plus wrench turns per fitting manufacturer guidance - do not overtighten bronze fittings. Inspect for leaks after restoring system pressure.
