Midland Industries 65347 Reducing Tee 1-1/4 X 3/4 Fpt Iron 150lb

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 65347 is a malleable iron reducing tee rated for 150 lb pressure service. It connects a 1-1/4 inch female pipe thread (FPT) run to two 3/4 inch FPT branches, making it a standard choice when a gas, air, or fluid distribution line needs to step down in size at a junction point. The fitting meets ANSI B16.3 dimensional standards and carries a temperature range of -20 to 350 degrees F. The black finish is suited for gas piping applications. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in both residential and light commercial piping systems.

This reducing tee is used in black iron gas piping systems, compressed air distribution, and general-purpose industrial piping where malleable iron construction is specified. The 1-1/4 in x 3/4 in x 3/4 in configuration suits branch takeoffs from a main gas supply line to smaller downstream circuits. It is common in residential furnace and boiler rough-in work, as well as light commercial mechanical rooms where black iron gas lines are required by code.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or applicable local mechanical codes. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before disassembling or making up any threaded connections. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium on all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten; follow standard hand-tight-plus-turns practice for malleable iron fittings and pressure-test the assembly before returning the system to service.
