The fitting connects a 1\/2 in female pipe thread (FPT) run inlet to a 1\/2 in FPT run outlet, with a 3\/8 in FPT branch outlet. Thread forms conform to ASME B1.20.1 standards, with run threads at 1\/2-14 and branch threads at 3\/8-18. Bronze construction provides strong corrosion resistance in both water and gas service applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors are the primary installers of this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis reducing tee is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and piping systems where a branch line of smaller diameter must be taken off a main run. Typical applications include potable water distribution, compressed air lines, and low-pressure gas piping where NPT-threaded bronze fittings are specified. The reducing configuration allows a 3\/8 in branch to be incorporated without additional reducers or bushings, keeping the assembly compact. It meets the dimensional requirements of ASME B16.15 and is listed to AWWA C800, WW-P-460C, and MSS-SP-106.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBronze construction for corrosion resistance in water and gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 in FPT run connections with 3\/8 in FPT branch outlet for in-line size reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreads conform to ASME B1.20.1 (NPT)  -  1\/2-14 run, 3\/8-18 branch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B16.15, AWWA C800, WW-P-460C, and MSS-SP-106 dimensional and material standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEliminates need for a separate reducer bushing at the branch connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for threaded bronze piping systems using standard NPT connections in plumbing and mechanical piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Plumbing Code (IPC), or relevant gas codes where applicable. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before disassembling or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not over-torque bronze fittings, as the material is softer than ferrous alternatives and threads can be damaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 in FPT (Run Inlet)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 in FPT (Run Outlet)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection 3\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 in FPT (Branch Outlet)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-14 x 3\/8-18 NPT per ASME B1.20.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimension Standards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B16.15, AWWA C800, WW-P-460C, MSS-SP-106\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MIDLAND INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80106-080608\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67949659259186,"sku":"80106-080608","price":24.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2e4846ca3212c7b65e948ffde01bd70e.jpg?v=1791697231","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-80106-080608-bronze-reducing-tee","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
