Midland Industries 64386 Side Outlet Tee 1-1/4 Fpt Iron 150 Lb

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 64386 is a malleable iron galvanized side outlet tee rated at 150 lb pressure class. It provides three female pipe thread (FPT) connections, each sized at 1-1/4 inches, with a 1-1/4-11-1/2 thread specification. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in moderate-exposure environments. Conforming to ANSI B16.3 dimensional standards, this fitting is designed for use in gas, air, and water piping systems within its rated temperature range of -20 to 350 degrees F. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting in both new construction and retrofit piping work.

The 64386 side outlet tee is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications where a branch connection must be made off a main run at a 90-degree angle. Its all-FPT configuration accepts standard male-threaded pipe ends on all three ports, making it straightforward to integrate into existing threaded iron pipe systems. Typical applications include natural gas distribution piping, compressed air lines, and low-pressure water supply systems. The 150 lb pressure rating aligns with standard Class 150 galvanized malleable iron fittings used throughout the trade.

Key Features

• Three 1-1/4 in FPT connections for consistent thread engagement on all ports
• Malleable iron construction for strength and impact resistance in piping systems
• Galvanized finish for added corrosion protection in exposed or moderate-moisture environments
• 150 lb pressure class rating per ANSI B16.3 dimensional standard
• Rated for -20 to 350 degrees F service temperature range
• 1-3/4 in center-to-end dimension for layout and spacing calculations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Class 150 galvanized malleable iron threaded piping systems using 1-1/4 in nominal pipe size.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC), or the International Plumbing Code (IPC) as required by the system type. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before cutting into or disassembling any section. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections in malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive torque.
