Midland Industries 80106-322424 Bronze Reducing Tee

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 80106-322424 is a bronze reducing tee fitting used to split or combine flow in piping systems where a main line transitions to smaller branch connections. The run measures 2 inches with both the branch and outlet measuring 1-1/2 inches. Bronze construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in wet service environments. This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters in commercial and residential piping systems where different pipe sizes must be joined at a tee junction.

This reducing tee is suited for use in water supply, heating, and general-purpose bronze fitting applications. The 2-inch run with 1-1/2-inch branch and outlet configuration is a standard reducing geometry used when a main distribution line steps down to smaller branch lines. It is typically found in mechanical rooms, boiler systems, and general plumbing rough-in work where bronze fittings are specified for longevity and compatibility with copper and brass piping.

Key Features

• Bronze construction resists corrosion in water and wet service conditions
• 2-inch run connection accommodates larger main line diameter
• Dual 1-1/2-inch branch and outlet connections for symmetrical reduction
• Reducing tee geometry eliminates the need for additional reducers at the branch
• Minimum order quantity of 1 unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit bronze reducing tee for residential and commercial piping systems requiring a 2-inch by 1-1/2-inch by 1-1/2-inch reducing configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the supply line and drain standing water from the pipe before cutting in or soldering this fitting. Bronze tees may be joined using solder, threaded, or press-fit connections depending on the end connection type specified for the application. Inspect all connections for leaks after restoring system pressure.
