Midland Industries 64348 Galvanized Reducing Tee 150 Lb

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 64348 is a galvanized malleable iron bulkhead reducing tee rated for 150 lb service. It connects three female-threaded pipe lines at three different sizes: 1-1/4 inches FPT, 3/4 inch FPT, and 1 inch FPT. The tee conforms to ANSI B16.3 dimensional standards and carries a working temperature range of -20 to 350 degrees F. Malleable iron construction with a galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance in wet or exposed installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in gas, water, and general-purpose piping systems where a reducing branch connection is required.

This reducing tee is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications where branch lines run at a smaller diameter than the main run. Typical uses include supply line distribution, gas branch piping, and compressed air manifolds where flow needs to be divided and reduced simultaneously. The galvanized finish makes it appropriate for exposed or semi-exposed installations subject to moisture. The 150 lb pressure class fits standard low-pressure service conditions common in building mechanical systems.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard 150 lb galvanized malleable iron piping systems conforming to ANSI B16.3.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply listed pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly; do not apply sealant to female threads. Verify that the pressure class and temperature rating of this fitting are compatible with the specific service application before installation.
