Midland Industries 64334 Reducing Tee Galvanized Iron 150 Lb

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 64334 is a malleable iron reducing tee with a galvanized finish, rated for 150 lb service. It connects two 2-inch female pipe thread (FPT) ports on the run with a 1-1/4-inch FPT branch outlet. Threaded to ANSI B16.3 standards, this fitting is built for low-pressure piping systems carrying water, air, gas, or steam within its rated temperature and pressure range. At 0.620 pounds and with a compact center-to-end dimension of 1.86 by 2.06 inches, it fits into tight rough-in spaces without excessive weight on the line. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers in both residential and light commercial applications.

This reducing tee is suited for 150 lb galvanized malleable iron piping systems in residential and light commercial construction. Typical applications include domestic water supply, compressed air distribution, natural gas distribution, and hydronic heating rough-in work. The branch reduction from 2 inches to 1-1/4 inches allows a single fitting to serve as a transition point where a main line splits to feed a smaller lateral. The operating temperature range of -20 to 350 degrees F covers a wide range of service conditions encountered in standard plumbing and mechanical installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with the applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements for the service type. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before disassembling any existing fitting. Apply an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-torque threaded connections in malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive force.
