Midland Industries 64372 Reducing Tee Galvanized Iron 150 Lb

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 64372 is a galvanized malleable iron reducing tee rated for 150 lb pressure service. It connects a 1-1/2 inch female pipe thread (FPT) run to two 1 inch FPT outlets, making it a practical choice for branch-off applications where line size must step down. The fitting is manufactured to ANSI B16.3 dimensional standards and carries a working temperature range of -20 to 350 degrees F. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for wet or exposed environments. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in threaded iron piping systems where a reducing branch connection is required.

This reducing tee is suited for residential and light commercial threaded pipe installations including water supply, compressed air distribution, and general industrial piping. The three-way reducing configuration allows a main run of 1-1/2 inch pipe to branch into a 1 inch line without requiring additional reducers. Center-to-end dimensions of 1.5 inches, 1.65 inches, and 1.78 inches allow accurate layout in tight mechanical spaces. It is appropriate for use in any application where iron pipe fittings rated to 150 lb pressure class are specified.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working on threaded iron pipe systems. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before disassembling or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly and tighten to full thread engagement. Follow applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements for pressure testing after installation.
