Midland Industries 65378 Reducing Tee 2x1.5x0.75 in Fpt 150lb

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 65378 is a black malleable iron reducing tee rated for 150 lb pressure class service. It features three female pipe thread (FPT) connections in three different sizes, making it suitable for branch and transition runs in threaded piping systems. The tee is manufactured to ANSI B16.3 dimensional standards and carries a temperature range of -20 to 350 degrees F. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install this fitting in gas distribution, compressed air, and other fluid-handling systems where a threaded branch off a main run is required with a size reduction.

This reducing tee is used in residential and light commercial piping installations where a 2 inch main line must branch to a 1-1/2 inch run and a 3/4 inch outlet. The black finish and malleable iron construction make it a standard choice for natural gas, propane, and low-pressure steam applications. Its 150 lb pressure class rating covers the typical working pressures found in these systems. The fitting ships with an MOQ of 1, allowing single-unit procurement for service and repair work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) where applicable. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly, and tighten with a pipe wrench to a secure, leak-free fit. Pressure-test the completed assembly before returning the system to service.
